Malignant Salivary Gland Tumors

Background: Salivary gland tumors are rare, generally benign and affect both major and minor salivary glands.Objective: To find out the pattern of distribution of different benign and malignant salivary gland epithelial tumors and their relation to age and sex in a tertiary care center in Bangladesh.Methodology: This is a retrospective study. Details of epithelial salivary gland tumors were obtained from department of ENT, National institute of cancer & research hospital (NICRH), Dhaka, Bangladesh from the period January 2009 to December 2012 (3 years).Result: A total number of 261 cases presenting with both benign and malignant salivary gland tumors were analyzed according to gender, age and histopathological findings. There were 130 (49.84%) males and 131 (50.19%) females with the male female ration of 1: 0.99. Age of study population ranged from 10 to 70 years with the mean age 40.78. Percentage of benign salivary gland tumors was 73.94% and malignant salivary gland tumor 26.05%. Among major salivary gland tumors, no sublingual tumors were found and parotid gland tumors were the commonest. Whereas, among minor salivary gland tumors palatal minor salivary tumors were common.Conclusion: Parotid gland was the most common site of origin of both benign and malignant salivary gland tumors. Histopathologically, pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign salivary gland tumor and mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most frequent malignant neoplasm. Adenoid cystic carcinoma was common minor salivary gland tumor.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.15(1) 2016 p.90-94

Warthin tumor is the second most common benign salivary gland tumor that classically arises in the parotid gland. It can be synchronous, metachronous, multifocal, bilateral, or unilateral, which complicates diagnosis and management. Rare cases of Warthin tumor of the minor salivary gland are described, but no cases of unilateral, synchronous Warthin tumor involving the parotid and minor salivary gland have been reported. We present a case of Warthin tumor arising from a minor salivary gland in the left oropharynx of a 71-year-old male with a previous history of left parotid Warthin tumor, later determined to be synchronous.

Base Of The Tongue

A case of a large (5.5 cm), multilobulated, mucosa-covered, minor salivary gland tumor of the base of the tongue that displayed morphologic features of both a mucoepidermoid carcinoma and an acinous cell tumor is described. Generally, each of these salivary gland tumors occurs only rarely at this site. A tumor with both these elements has not previously been reported.

Objective: To present a case of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma in the parapharyngeal space and discuss its management.   Methods: Design:            Case Report Setting:           Tertiary Government Teaching Hospital Subjects:         One   Results:  A 40-year-old male patient with dysphagia for three months and a left-sided mucosa-covered oropharyngeal mass was found to have a prestyloid parapharyngeal lesion on CT Scans. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) revealed a pleomorphic adenoma. With a past history of parapharyngeal pleomorphic adenoma excised transorally three years before, the present mass was excised by mandibular swing approach. Post-operative recovery was uneventful, but the final histopathological report was carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma.   Conclusion: Malignant transformation should be suspected in recurrent salivary tumors in the parapharyngeal space. Provided there was truly no pre-existing malignant focus in the originally-excised tumor, and that early recurrence was not due to inadequate initial excision, this patient had a rare condition where the same tumor underwent malignant transformation within 3 years only. To the best of our knowledge, such an early transformation to malignancy of a minor salivary gland tumor of the parapharyngeal space has not been reported in the English literature.   Keywords: carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma, pleomorphic adenoma, carcinoma,  parapharyngeal space, malignant, transformation, minor salivary gland tumor,  mandibular swing

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Salivary gland tumor management requires long-term follow-up because of tumor indolence and possible late recurrence and distant metastasis. Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) accounts for 10-15% of such tumors. The aim here was to evaluate surgical and clinical management, staging and follow-up of ACC patients in one academic institution. DESIGN AND SETTING: Retrospective study at Head and Neck Service, Universidade Estadual de Campinas. METHODS: Data on 21 patients treated between 1993 and 2003 were reviewed. Management utilized clinical staging, histology and imaging. Major salivary gland tumor extent was routinely assessed by preoperative ultrasonography. Diagnosis, surgery type, margin type (negative/positive), postoperative radiotherapy and recurrence (presence/absence) were evaluated. RESULTS: There were eleven major salivary gland tumors (52.3%), seven submandibular and four parotid. Ten patients (47.7%) had minor salivary gland ACC (all in palate), while the submandibular was the most frequently affected major one. Diagnoses were mostly via fine-needle aspiration (FNA) and incision biopsy. Frozen sections were used for six patients. There was good ultrasound/FNA correlation. Sixteen (76%) had postoperative radiotherapy. One (4.7%) died from ACC and five now have recurrent disease: three (14.2%) locoregional and two (9.5%) distant metastases. CONCLUSION: Adenoid cystic carcinoma has locally aggressive behavior. In 21 cases, of ACC, the facial nerve was preserved in all except in the few with gross tumor involvement. Treatment was defined from physical examination, imaging, staging and histology.

Warthin tumor (WT) is the second most common benign salivary gland neoplasm. It is also the most frequent salivary gland tumor to occur synchronously or metachronously with another salivary gland neoplasm, in the same gland or on the other side. Oncocytic papillary cystadenomas (OPCs) are rare neoplasms that are more common in minor salivary gland locations and in women. We describe in detail the case of a 73-year-old male smoker with synchronous OPC and WT of the parotid gland. On microscopy, both tumors resembled each other considerably, with the only difference being that the OPC lacked the tumor-associated lymphoid proliferation characteristic of WT. These findings highlight that OPC bears considerable similarity to WT. While this morphological similarity may lead to misdiagnosis on rare occasions, it does not affect patient management, as clinical behavior of both these tumors is similar.
