   MeSH:	CARCINOMA SALIVARY GLANDS ACINAR CELL
   Abstract:	Acinic cell carcinoma is a rare, low grade malignant tumor of the salivary glands. Most frequently it originates from major salivary glands almost exclusively in parotid gland and rarely from minor salivary glands. In this report we present a case of 64-year-old man with a persistent swelling within the mucosa of the lower lip at the line of the canine tooth for two years. The lesion was painless, soft in texture, mimicked a mucocel and had the dimensions of 1x1.5 cm with an overlying mucosa normal in color. Surgical excision of the lesion is performed and histopathological confirmation revealed acinic cell carcinoma.

   MeSH:	CARCINOMA LIP
   Abstract:	The study presents the uncommon clinical appearance and localisation of carcinoma of the upper lip.A 74-year-old female patient was referred to the Outpatient Department of Oral Medicine because of a purulent infiltrate in the upper lip which was thought to be an insect bite. She was referred to the Outpatient Department of Oral Surgery where an incision was performed and drainage, and piogenic granuloma diagnosed. As the lesion had not healed after two months, but on the contrary had become harder and more visible, both vestibularly and labially, an excision was planned. In the meantime, however, the patient had attended the Clinic of Dermatovenerology because of basocellular lesions on the face, and during excision of the facial lesions a surface biopsy was performed from the skin side of the lip, and the PHD finding showed planocellular carcinoma. At the Clinic of Dermatovenerology the patient was recommended to undergo radiotherapy of the lesions. However, the patient returned to the Out-patient Department of Oral Surgery. Because of the suspicion that the biopsy had been too superficial and because of the possibility of eventual confusion with a mioblastoma, complete excision of the lesion was performed and an identical PHD finding was obtained of planocellular carcinoma. The patient was then transferred to the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospital Dubrava, where an extended excision was performed, and the PHD confirmed that the lesion had been completely excised in the previous procedure.
