Background: The salivary gland system of the upper aero digestive tract plays a critical role in the functions of digestion, respiration, communication, and overall homeostasis. The Salivary gland swellings can be broadly classified into inflammatory, non-inflammatory and neoplastic swellings like calculi, benign tumours such has pleomorphic adenoma, oncocytoma, Warthin's tumour, malignant tumors which include-adenocarcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma.Methods: The present cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of general surgery, Sri Siddhartha Medical College over a period of 2 years from August 2016 to July 2018.  All major salivary gland neoplastic swellings confirmed by FNAC were included in this study.Results: In our study 23 patients had major salivary gland tumours out of that 19 patients had parotid and 4 had submandibular major salivary gland tumour. In our study out 23 cases of salivary tumours 19 cases were benign and 4 cases were malignant, out of 19 cases of parotid tumours, 15 (78.94%) cases were seen in superficial lobe and 4 (21.06%) were in deep lobe, out of 23 salivary gland tumours, 19 (82.6%) cases were pleomorphic adenoma 3(13.05%) cases were mucoepidermoid carcinoma and one case (4.35%) was acinic cell carcinoma.Conclusions: Parotid gland was the most common site of origin of both benign and malignant tumours, Pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign salivary gland tumour and mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most frequent malignant neoplasm.

AbstractAn oncocytic mucoepidermoid carcinoma and an oncocytic pleomorphic adenoma occurred in a 47-year-old male and a 75-year-old female, respectively. Both presented as asymptomatic parotid gland masses without evidence of facial nerve paralysis and were treated by superficial parotidectomy. There has been no evidence of recurrence or metastasis. Oncocytic change is rare in major salivary gland mucoepidermoid carcinoma with only two previously reported cases. Marked oncocytic transformation of pleomorphic adenomas can cause their confusion with oncocytomas. Recognition of oncocytic differentiation in various salivary gland tumours is important to avoid misclassification of these lesions.

Background: Salivary gland tumors represent a different variety of histological types. The definite diagnosis of type of salivary gland tumor is required for proper treatment planning. The aim of this study was to evaluate the pattern of salivary gland malignancy in B.P. Koirala Memorial Cancer Hospital, Bharatpur, Chitwan. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in patients of malignant salivary gland tumor registered in B.P. Koirala Memorial Cancer hospital retrospectively from September 2009 to August 2012. Results: Parotid gland was the most common sites for malignant salivary gland tumor (80%) followed by submandibular gland (20%). Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignant salivary gland tumor of parotid gland and Adenoid cystic carcinoma was the most common malignant tumor of submandibu-lar gland. Male: Female ratio was 1.5:1 with age range from 12 years to 71 years. Common age group for malignant salivary gland tumor was from 50 to 60 years. Conclusions: Parotid was the most common site whereas Mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most common malignant tumor of major salivary gland.
