The characteristic feature of these tumors is a benign proliferation of mature adipose tissue along with normal salivary gland features. We describe a case of a slowly enlarging mass in the submandibular region of a 45-year-old male which on excision was reported as sialolipoma }, URL ={https://www.ijofb.org/article.asp?issn=2589-1723;year=2018;volume=2;issue=2;spage=56;epage=57;aulast=Bakshi;t=6}, eprint ={https://www.ijofb.org/article.asp?issn=2589-1723;year=2018;volume=2;issue=2;spage=56;epage=57;aulast=Bakshi;t=6} }
