The study is a Descriptive, Retrospective and Multicenter analysis of a series of 15patients above 23 years to below 63years who were treated for salivary gland MEC in the Department of oral and maxillofacial pathology, oral surgery and oral medicine, Vishnu Dental College, Bhimavaram from 2002 to 2021. Method: Of the 15 cases of MEC, 1 male patient of age 35 was excluded, which was diagnosed as a High grade MEC since proper data could not be attained from the archival files and when communicated for the details he died in 2014.In the study H &amp;amp; E, PAS, Diastase and IHC markers like pan cytokeratin were used to know the nature of the lesion. Aim of the study: All the relevant clinical, radiological and histopathological information regarding the diagnosed cases of MEC were retrieved from the archival files and co-related for Clinicopathological findings. Conclusion:&amp;nbsp;Clinical, radiological and pathological correlation is necessary for preoperative diagnosis of the high grade aggressive MEC. MEC is not only restricted to the children and adolescent age group but can affect any age group. Intraosseous minor salivary gland MEC are more prevalent in the maxillary and mandibular posterior region. While histology is playing a role of gold standard, the IHC is further aiding in the diagnosis of MEC.</abstract></article-meta></front><body /><back /></article>
