Nevus of Ota, a benign melanocytic pigmentary disorder with rare malignant transformation potential, affects 0.014-0.034% of the Asian and Black population and has a strong predilection for females. It occurs in the area innervated by the first and second division of the trigeminal nerve. Oral manifestation is rarely noted with only 14 cases reported till date. This report documents a case of Nevus of Ota with the infrequently noted oral involvement, in an Indian lady. Since oral manifestation is not acknowledged in Tanino's classification, the authors propose a modification to the same.

It is not uncommon to find lesions on the hard palate in daily practice, but what is uncommon is the encounter of rarities. One such rarity is the adenomatoid hyperplasia (AH) of the minor salivary glands, which is hyperplasia of the normally occurring salivary glands. This rare entity may occur anywhere in the oral cavity; but happens to occur more frequently on the palate. Two cases of AH occurring on the palate in elderly individuals are being reported.
