A case of pleomorphic adenoma in the upper lip is reported. A 61‐year‐old male had a tumor at the left side of the upper lip for 8 years. The tumor was surgically excised without recurrence. Histopathologically, the tumor was a typical pleomorphic adenoma with keratinization and glandular differentiation of tumor cells and fibroblastic, mucinous, hyalinized, and cartilagenous stroma.
