			The sections show a stratified squamous epithelium with a thin layer of parakeratosis,
			minor salivary glands, and a well-circumscribed cystic lesion.

			The cystic lesion has a mildly fibrotic appearing wall, is lined by histiocytes intermixed with rare lymphocytes, and contains mucous and macrophages. No significant nuclear atypia is identified. Mitotic activity is not readily apparent.
