Salivary gland cancers (SGCs) are a type of head and neck cancer (HNC) that can arise from any of the three major glands (parotid, sublingual, and submandibular) or from the various minor salivary glands. Minor Salivary Gland Tumor (MSGT) is a rare, slow growing and more malignant than other SGCs. Although conventional treatment involves a total excision of the lesion, we have treated a patient who was affected by MSGT without any surgical procedures by following an evidence based holistic treatment. We report a case study of a middle-aged woman affected by this rare tumor who is leading a quality life and progression free tumor.
