Salivary Gland Neoplasms in Children

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1992
Of 29 patients, aged 3 to 16 years, with nonvasoformative salivary gland tumors, 21 had malignant tumors. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most common; adenocarcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, and acinic cell carcinoma were equally represented. Pleomorphic adenoma was the exclusive benign lesion, occurring in eight patients.

Neoplasms of the salivary glands

Surgery (Oxford), 2004
Abstract This contribution initially looks at the anatomy and pathophysiology of the salivary glands. It discusses the cause, incidence and prevalence of neoplasms. Investigations and diagnosis, surgical management, complications of surgery and prognosis are also discussed.

Paediatric Salivary Gland Epithelial Neoplasms

ORL, 2007
Salivary gland epithelial neoplasms in children are rare. Clinicians of all disciplines need to have a high level of suspicion when a non-inflammatory single mass lesion presents in the parotid or submandibular glands. There is high likelihood of malignancy when such a mass presents.

Myoeptihelial cells in salivary gland neoplasms

APMIS, 1989
Archival paraffin sections from normal salivary gland tissue and salivary gland neoplasms were stained by immunoperoxidase tehcnique with a well characterized cytokeratin antibody (PKK1). In normal parotid tissue, myoepithelial cells and peripheral cells of larger ducts were selectively stained.

Recurrent Benign Salivary Gland Neoplasms

2016
The most important causes of recurrence of benign pleomorphic adenoma are enucleation with intraoperative spillage and incomplete tumor excision in association with characteristic histologic findings for the lesion (incomplete pseudocapsule and the presence of pseudopodia). Most recurrent pleomorphic adenomas (RPAs) are multinodular. MRI is the imaging

Minor Salivary Gland Neoplasm in Children

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2013
In this article, we present a review of the literature, and we focus on 2 particular cases of cancer of the salivary glands accessory in pediatric patients The accessory parotid is the site of congenital and acquired lesions. In adults, the acquired lesions are often neoplastic and are usually similar to those seen in the main parotid gland.

Chemotherapy of advanced salivary gland neoplasms

Cancer, 1982
Fourteen patients with advanced salivary gland malignancies were treated with combination chemotherapy. Five of 13 patients responded to cyclophosphamide and adriamycin and two patients in the responding groups underwent further potentially curable treatment, rendering them disease-free. Three patients with mucoepidermoid carcinoma failed to respond to

Malignant neoplasms of the major salivary glands

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1981
AbstractBetween January 1, 1968 and December 31, 1978, 42 patients with malignant lesions involving the major salivary glands were seen at the Medical College of Virginia. A 60% 2‐year survival and a 42% 5‐year survival were noted. Histologic type was the major determinant of survival.

Neoplasms of the Salivary Glands

1986
The salivary glands are usually divided into the major glands (which are the paired parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands) and the minor salivary glands that are found in the mucous membranes throughout the upper aerodigestive tract. The consideration of neoplastic processes of these structures is as varied as their locations and has but a ...

Recurrent malignant salivary gland neoplasms

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1989
AbstractRecurrent salivary gland malignancies present difficult therapeutic decisions and poor prognosis in many instances, and treatment becomes of a palliative nature only. As many of the salivary gland malignancies we see are of the recurrent type, the following study was done to determine the efficacy of a vigorous attempt at retreatment.
