Sialolipoma of the submandibular gland is very rare. We report a case of a 57-year-old woman who presented with a painless, slowly growing, mobile lump of the right submandibular gland. Clinical examination and FNA revealed chronic sialidenitis of the right submandibular gland. Exision was performed with uneventful postoperative course. The histology showed sialolipoma. Review of the 25 reported cases (including our case) of sialolipoma shows that this tumor is more common in the fifth decade of life, on the left side and the superficial lobe of parotid gland. It has a slight preference for men. Surgical excision is curative with minor complications and small recurrence rate. Histological examination is necessary to establish the diagnosis and to exclude malignancy.
