UNASSIGNED: @entity1358 ( @entity1358 ), so-called @entity1358 , not otherwise specified (CCC (NOS)), of the salivary glands is a rare and low-grade @entity5 . We report a case of @entity1358 so-called CCC (NOS) (referred to as @entity1358 ) of the minor salivary gland of the buccal mucosa. A 52-year-old @entity1 had presented with a gradually growing and indolent mass in the right buccal mucosa for about two years. The first biopsy histopathologically suggested the possibility of @entity5 derived from the minor salivary glands. A month later, she visited our hospital. The @entity5 measured approximately 1.5   cm in diameter and was elastic hard, smooth, and well movable. Image examinations demonstrated internal homogeneity of the lesion, which had a smooth margin, in the right buccal mucosa. Complete @entity5 resection followed by covering with a @entity6886 sheet and fibrin glue spray was performed without surgical flap reconstruction. Histopathological findings revealed proliferating @entity5 cells with clear cytoplasm surrounded by hyalinizing stroma in the submucosal minor salivary glands. Immunohistochemical stains revealed these @entity5 cells to be positive for epithelial cell markers but negative for myoepithelial ones. These findings confirmed the diagnosis of @entity1358 . Good wound healing and no evidence of local recurrence and @entity3 have been shown since surgery.
