Simultaneous pleomorphic adenoma of the left parotid gland and adenoid cystic carcinoma of the contralateral sublingual salivary gland: a case report

Introduction

Sublingual salivary gland neoplasms are extremely rare, accounting for only 0.3–1% of all epithelial salivary gland tumors. Most of the sublingual tumors are malignant, adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) and mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) being the most common histological types. The coexistence of two salivary gland tumors located in different major salivary glands is uncommon.

Case report

A rare case of two simultaneous tumors of the major salivary glands, one in the sublingual and the other in the contralateral parotid gland in a female patient is reported.

Discussion

The diagnostic procedure followed, and the management of the patient, is outlined in the paper.     

Salivary gland neoplasms: an analysis of 74 cases

Between 2006 and 2009, 74 cases of salivary gland neoplasms were analyzed retrospectively, of which 44 (60%) were benign and 30 (40%) malignant. 61 % percent of neoplasms were in the parotid gland, 22% in the minor salivary glands including sublingual salivary glands, and 17% in the submandibular glands. The most common benign neoplasm was pleomorphic adenoma (64%), and the most common malignant neoplasm were adenoid cystic carcinoma (17%) and mucoepidermoid carcinoma (23%). We analyze the incidence and distribution of all types of salivary gland neoplasms in our series, and provide data for comparison with other epidemiological studies from different geographical sites and races. Demographic data from these studies help us to a better understanding of the biological and clinical characteristics of the disease. Further epidemiological surveys should be encouraged for better understanding of the disease and to provide early and better treatment of salivary gland neoplasms     

The treatment of sublingual gland tumours

This study assessed the clinical and histological features and therapeutic efficacy of 25 cases of sublingual gland tumours from 1998 to 2008. There were 17 female patients and 8 male, the ratio of females to males was 2.1:1. The mean age was 48.6 years. 4 cases were benign tumours (16%). 21 cases were malignant sublingual gland tumours (84%) and of these, 18 were adenoid cystic carcinoma (86%). Adenoid cystic carcinoma was mainly of the histological type, and the other histological classifications included mucoepidermoid carcinoma, pleomorphic adenoma, myoepithelioma, oncocytoma and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma. Sublingual gland tumours are rare and most are malignant. For malignant sublingual gland tumours, early diagnosis and aggressive surgical treatment, especially for tumours with nerve involvement, is the key to improving prognosis. Free radial forearm flap or pectoralis major myocutaneous flap are appropriate methods for mouth floor reconstruction. For benign sublingual gland tumours, the resection of tumour and sublingual gland is the preferred treatment.     

Unusual localization of an adenoid cystic carcinoma subsequent to superficial parotidectomy for a benign lesion

Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the parotid gland is relatively rare. According to a retrospective study of the medical records and histopathology files of 514 cases of parotid tumors operated at our hospital over a period of 18 years, adenoid cystic carcinoma represented only 2.3% of all parotid gland neoplasms, a total of 12 cases. In our records we retrieved only one documented case of adenoid cystic carcinoma that originated in the parotid gland subsequent to superficial parotidectomy for a benign lesion (pleomorphic adenoma).An even more exceptional presentation of adenoid cystic carcinoma is as a bilobed tumor extending from the post auricular to the temporal and zygomatic region. The management of this case is presented along with a brief review of the literature concerning the evaluation and management of this rare entity.     

增殖细胞核抗原和Ki-67抗原在涎腺癌中的表达

目的:探讨细胞增殖核抗原和Ki-67抗原在不同类型涎腺癌中的表达及意义。方法:采用SABC和LSAB免疫组化法分别检测PCNA和Ki-67在17例粘液表皮样癌、12例腺样囊性癌、9例恶性多形性腺瘤中的表达和分布。结果:1)PCNA及Ki-67的增殖指数即PI值在粘液表皮样癌和腺样囊性癌的不同分级中表达不同,且有统计学意义(P<0.005)。2)恶性多形性腺瘤PCNA及Ki-67的PI值较高,与腺样囊性癌及粘液表皮样癌相比差异有统计学意义(P<0.001)。3)PCNA及Ki-67的表达水平与涎腺癌的生物学行为(复发和转移)明显相关。结论:涎腺癌中PCNA和Ki-67的表达水平与细胞分化有关,其PI值可作为粘液表皮样癌和腺样囊性癌的组织学分级的重要参数,也是诊断恶性多形性腺瘤的重要指标。PCNA和Ki-67的高表达预示着涎腺癌预后的不良。     

Intraoral minor salivary gland neoplasms: review of 213 cases.

PURPOSE: Minor salivary gland tumors (MSGTs) constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with great histomorphologic variation. This study reviews a large series of benign and malignant salivary gland tumors of the oral region and determines the incidence and the correlation of the histopathologic features with the clinical characteristics. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two hundred thirteen cases of MSGT were retrospectively studied. Hematoxylin-eosin-stained slides were examined in all cases. Special stains and immunohistochemical stains were used in selected cases. Clinical characteristics of the neoplasms were also noted. RESULTS: One hundred nineteen tumors were benign (56%), and 94 tumors were malignant (44%). Pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign tumor (93 of 119). Canalicular adenoma was the second most common benign MSGT in our series (25 of 119). Of the 94 malignant MSGTs, mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) (45 of 94), adenoid cystic carcinoma (22 of 94), and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma (18 of 94) were the most common. Most MECs (34 of 45) were low-grade lesions. Of 5 central MECs, 3 cases occurred in the maxilla and 2 cases arose in the mandible. CONCLUSIONS: Benign intraoral MSGTs are slightly more common than malignant MSGTs. Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common MSGT, and MEC is the most common malignant variety. The palate is the most common site for minor gland neoplasms. Benign labial salivary gland neoplasms are more common in the upper lip, and malignant labial tumors are more common in the lower lip.

Salivary gland tumours: 25 years of experience from a single institution in Croatia

IntroductionThe aim of this study was to determine the types, frequency, distribution, and demographic characteristics of salivary gland tumours in a large representative sample.Patients and methodsWe retrospectively analysed the medical records of 779 patients with tumours of the salivary glands surgically treated from 1985 to 2009 at a single institution.ResultsThere were 500 benign and 279 malignant tumours. The average age of patients with benign tumours was 50 years and of malignant salivary gland tumours 56 years. No differences in age and incidence of tumours existed between males and females. The majority of the tumours occurred in the parotid gland (509), followed by the minor salivary glands (212), the submandibular gland (51) and lastly, the sublingual gland (7). Minor salivary gland tumours occurred most frequently on the palate, the pleomorphic adenoma being the most frequent benign tumour type and the adenoid cystic carcinoma being the commonest malignant tumour. Tumours of the sublingual gland were rare, but all were malignant. Malignant tumours were more common in the minor salivary glands and the submandibular gland.ConclusionThis large study of salivary gland tumours in Croatia could improve our understanding of the significant differences in the global distribution of salivary gland tumours which have been reported.

Intraoral Minor Salivary Gland Tumours: A Retrospective Study from a Dental and Maxillofacial Surgery Centre in Salem,Tamil Nadu

Abstract

Minor salivary gland tumors (MSGTs) constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with variation in histopathology. These are rare neoplasms usually occurring in the palate. Dental examination may provide an opportunity for early detection.

Aim

This study was undertaken to do an epidemiological survey of minor salivary gland tumours reporting to a single dental and maxillofacial surgery centre and to determine the correlation of the histopathologic characteristics with the clinical features.

Materials and Methods

A retrospective survey of the histopathological findings of 1,020 consecutive biopsy reports in a single dental and maxillofacial surgery centre was done to identify cases of MSGT. The results were tabulated based on various criteria.

Results

In our study, only 8 tumors were benign (26.67 %), and 22 tumors were malignant (73.33 %). Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) was the most common tumor (15 of 30). Pleomorphic adenoma was most common benign MSGT in our series (7 of 30). This was followed by adenoid cystic carcinoma (6 of 30). Palate was the most common site (13 of 30) followed by buccal mucosa (5 of 30) and lip (4 of 30).

Conclusions

Unlike many previous studies, malignant salivary gland tumours were predominant. MEC was the most common malignant tumour in our study similar to many other studies. The palate was the most common site for minor salivary gland neoplasms.     

Evaluation of the nucleolar organizer region associated proteins in minor salivary gland tumors

Forty-three intraoral salivary gland tumors were studied to determine the value of the AgNOR technique in the assessment of these neoplasms. Well defined black dots were visible in the nucleii of all the specimens studied. The mean AgNOR count per nucleus for each tumor was calculated as follows: pleomorphic adenoma (n = 15) 1.52; Polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma (n = 12) 1.90; adenoid cystic carcinoma (n = 6) 2.92; mucoepidermoid carcinoma (n = 4) 1.93; carcinoma ex mixed tumor (n = 4) 2.05; undifferentiated carcinoma (n = 1) 3.13 and epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (n = 1) 2.23. The difference between the means of benign and malignant tumors (P less than 0.01) and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma (P less than 0.01) were highly significant. The overlapping of the AgNOR count between various tumors prohibited the use of this technique as an absolute criterion in establishing a final diagnosis. It could however be used as a diagnostic aid in differentiating between salivary gland neoplasms.     

Intra-oral salivary gland neoplasms: a retrospective study of 98 cases

The findings of a retrospective study of 98 minor salivary neoplasms are reported. The patients' ages ranged from 13–79 years and there was an equal sex distribution. Sixty-one of the lesions were benign, 53 being pleomorphic adenomas and 8 monomorphic adenomas. Of the malignant tumors, 19 were mucoepidermoid tumors, 12 adenoid cystic carcinomas, 4 adenocarcinomas, 1 carcinoma ex-pleomorphic adenoma and 1 epidermoid carcinoma. One striking finding was the difference in age at the time of presentation for patients with muco-epidermoid tumors compared with those with adenoid cystic carcinomas. Seventy-four percent of the patients with muco-epidermoid tumors were under 50 years of age, but 75% of those with adenoid cystic carcinomas were over 50 years.     

Simultaneously occurring salivary gland tumors of different types.

Two cases of simultaneously occurring salivary gland tumors of the parotid gland are reported. Both patients were women in the sixth decade of life. In the first patient, a carcinoma in pleomorphic adenoma and an oncocytoma were found in the right parotid gland. The second patient had an adenoid cystic carcinoma associated with a sebaceous cell adenoma. The addition of these cases to the previously published data brings the total number of simultaneously occurring salivary gland tumors of different types to ten.     

Salivary gland neoplasms in oral and maxillofacial regions: a 23-year retrospective study of 6982 cases in an eastern Chinese population

There is little information in the English-language literature about the epidemiology of salivary gland neoplasms in the eastern Chinese population. A large retrospective study (6982 primary salivary tumors during 23 years) was carried out to investigate the clinicopathological features (tumor location, patient sex and age) of these tumors in this population. 3593 tumors were in males and 3389 in females. Pleomorphic adenoma (69%) was the most common tumor and 20% were located in minor glands. 92% of Warthin's tumors occurred in males. Malignant tumors were predominantly adenoid cystic carcinoma (30%) and mucoepidermoid carcinoma (30%). Incidences of lymphoepithelial carcinomas (5%) and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma (1%) of malignant tumors were identified. 28% of tumors originated from minor glands. Most findings were similar to those in the literature, with some variations. The salivary tumors slightly predominated in males. Relatively higher incidences of minor gland tumors and specifically of pleomorphic adenoma in minor glands were noted. Adenoid cystic carcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma constituted the most common malignancies. There was a high incidence of lymphoepithelial carcinomas but a low incidence of polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma. The historical significant male predominance of Warthin's tumor was confirmed.

Incidence and profile of benign epithelial tumors of salivary glands from a single center in Northeast of Brazil

Background Benign tumors of the salivary glands are a group of lesions with varied histopathological and clinical spectrum. The aim was to determine the incidence and clinicopathological characteristics of benign salivary gland neoplasms diagnosed between 2007 and 2016 in a single center located in northeastern Brazil. Material and Methods Records regarding sex, age, anatomical location, histopathological subtype and treatment were retrieved, and data were analyzed using the Stata/IC software (version 12.0). Results There were above 7,100 cases of neoplasms in the head and neck region, of which 403 corresponded to salivary gland neoplasms. Of these, 238 (59%) were benign, being pleomorphic adenoma (PA) the most frequent neoplasm (n=178; 74.8%), followed by Warthin''s tumor (WT) (n=23; 9.7%). Overall, most cases occurred in females (n=136; 57.1%) and age ranged from 11 to 83 years. The parotid gland (n=188; 79%) was the most common anatomical site, and all patients were treated by surgical excision. Of the cases diagnosed as PA, malignant transformation to carcinoma ex-pleomorphic adenoma (CAEXPA) occurred in 7 (3.9%) cases. Conclusions The present study confirmed the clinical and demographic profile of benign salivary gland neoplasms, which contributes to the continuous knowledge of current data about these lesions. Key words:Salivary gland, benign neoplasms, epidemiology.
