Ossifications in mucoepidermoid carcinomas are rare. We presented a 46-year-old woman with an enlarging hard palate mass that appeared as a chondrosarcoma on CT but that was diagnosed, by pathology, as an intermediate-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma with extensive ossifications. Although rare, mucoepidermoid carcinoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of hard palate masses with ossifications.", }
