Abstract

This paper describes the first documented case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) with melanin pigmentation manifested in the palate. Histopathological sections showed a neoplasm composed of epidermoid, mucous-producing and intermediate cells. Numerous large cells contained dark pigmented materials. Fontana Masson staining revealed dendritic melanocytes and melanin granules. HMB-45, Melan A and S-100 protein were all positive for melanocytes. Histopathological examination was not typical for malignant melanoma; the lesion was diagnosed as a low-grade MEC with melanin pigmentation.
