Heterogeneity and versatility of the extracellular matrix during the transition from pleomorphic adenoma to carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma: cumulative findings from basic research and new insights. [PDF]
Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common salivary gland tumor, accounting for 50%–60% of these neoplasms. If untreated, 6.2% of PA may undergo malignant transformation to carcinoma ex-pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA). CXPA is a rare and aggressive malignant

Distinct copy number signatures between residual benign and transformed areas of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma. [PDF]
The mechanisms involved with the pathogenesis of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) seem to be associated with the accumulation of molecular alterations in the pleomorphic adenoma (PA).

Influence of p16 Protein Immunostaining on Histopathological Features of Pleomorphic Adenoma and Carcinoma ex- Pleomorphic Adenoma. [PDF]
The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of p16 in histologic characteristics and transition of Pleomorphic Adenoma (PA) to Carcinoma ex-PA (CxPA). So, 60 PA and 4 CxPA were histologic reviewed based on microscopic characteristics proposed by

Transoral robotic surgery for parapharyngeal carcinoma ex‐pleomorphic adenoma: A case report [PDF]
Background Carcinoma ex‐pleomorphic adenoma (Ca ex‐PA) comprises 0.5% of head and neck neoplasms. Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is an approach being used to treat a variety of benign and malignant head and neck neoplasms.

A Rare Case of Carcinoma Ex-pleomorphic Adenoma. [PDF]
Abstract Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign salivary tumor involving the parotid gland. However, malignant transformation to carcinoma expleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) is an exceedingly rare occurrence. Malignant patterns reported with pleomorphic adenoma include CXPA, metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma, and carcinosarcoma. Firm mass in

Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma in an elderly patient: A case report and literature review
Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (Ca ex PA) is a rare malignant tumor of salivary glands that originates in a primary (de novo) or recurrent pleomorphic adenoma. In the carcinoma component of Ca ex PA, many histological subtypes have been identified.

Trastuzumab Emtansine for the Treatment of HER-2 Positive Carcinoma Ex-pleomorphic Adenoma Metastatic to the Brain: A Case Report [PDF]
Background: Carcinoma Ex-pleomorphic adenoma is a malignant transformation of the common benign neoplasm of the salivary glands, “pleomorphic adenoma.” Only two cases were ever reported with brain metastases, with absence of good evidence guiding ...

Progressivity analysis of pleomorphic adenoma toward carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma
Background: Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is a benign salivary gland tumour with high incidence and recurrence after treatment. It may recur with the same appearance or develop toward malignancy, namely as carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA).

Peculiar nuclear atypia associated with MDM2 gene amplification in carcinoma ex‐pleomorphic adenoma harbouring an alteration of HMGA2 [PDF]
Salivary gland neoplasms (SGN) exhibiting the HMGA2::WIF1 fusion are recognized by their resemblance to histology found in canalicular adenoma. Recently, ~20% of cases among 28 HMGA2::WIF1‐rearranged‐SGN showed malignancy and adverse outcomes (recurrence,
