JNA is a rare disease of young males. It is a benign tumor and may be classified in three stages according to clinical and radiologic criteria. The treatments proposed for this tumor are different: by estrogens, by embolization, by radiotherapy or by surgery. The surgical techniques described in the literature are: paralateronasal; Rouge-Denker's transmaxillary; Bocca's transpharyngeal; transpalatine. Authors report their experience about nine stage I JNAs in young males treated and cured by surgical transpalatine technique. The follow-up is from 2 to 6 years. No relapse have been noted and no velo-palatine dysfunction has ever been complained of.
