The majority of these tumors arise in the parotid glands and account for only 1% of all salivary gland epithelial tumors.

  • A Primary Parotid Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in a Patient with Sjogren Syndrome
    Open Access Case Report DOI: 10.7759/cureus.15679 A Primary Parotid Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in a Patient With Sjogren Syndrome Michael R. Povlow 1 , Mitchell Streiff 2 , Sunthosh Madireddi 1 , Couger Jaramillo 3 1. Department of Radiology, Brooke Army Medical Center, San Antonio, USA 2. Department of Radiology, Ponce Health Sciences University, Ponce, USA 3. Department of Pathology, Brooke Army Medical Center, San Antonio, USA Corresponding author: Michael R. Povlow, [email protected] Abstract The salivary gland tumors are rare entities and the majority of these are benign. However, there are some entities such as prior neck radiation, certain infections, and systemic diseases which should raise the clinical suspicion for a malignant lesion. Patients with Sjogren syndrome are at increased risk for a salivary gland neoplasm, specifically non-Hodgkin lymphoma. While clinical findings play an important role in the initial workup, imaging plays a critical role in the diagnosis and management. This case describes a patient with Sjogren syndrome who presented with a left face mass where imaging was able to confidently diagnose her with a suspicious parotid neoplasm with lymphoma as the favored diagnosis. After histological evaluation, she was diagnosed with primary parotid mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) non-Hodgkin lymphoma after which she went on to non-operative management. Categories: Otolaryngology, Pathology, Radiology Keywords: parotid tumor, non-hodgkin’s lymphomas, salivary gland neoplasm, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (malt), head and neck neoplasms, head and neck radiology, sjogren's Introduction The salivary gland tumors are rare, accounting for only 6-8% of all head and neck tumors annually in the United States [1].

Parotid gland secretion is serous in nature. The sublingual gland secretes mixed, but predominantly mucous. The submandibular gland secretion is also mixed, but is predominantly serous. The minor glands secrete mucous saliva. Parotid Gland The parotid gland is the largest salivary gland, the secretion of which is serous in nature. It is pyramidal in shape; The base located superficial and apex medially The base is triangular in shape its apex is towards the angle of the mandible, the base at the external acoustic meatus The parotid duct (Stenson‘s duct) Emerges at the anterior part of the gland.

  • Case Report of Basal Cell Adenocarcinoma of the Parotid Gland: Clinicopathological and Immunohistochemical Study
    Case report of Basal cell adenocarcinoma of the parotid gland: clinicopathological and immunohistochemical study García Pedro Emilio1, Avila Rodolfo Esteban2, Samar María Elena3 DOI: 10.22592/ode2018n31a8 Abstract Basal cell adenocarcinoma is an epithelial neoplasm with the cytological characteristics of basal cell adenoma but with a morphological pattern of infiltrative growth indicative of malignancy. Due to its low incidence it is often difficult to diagnose a basal cell adenocarcinoma. The objective of the present study was to identify morphological and immunohistochemical characteristics that contribute to its diagnosis. A parotid tumor was resected in a 52-year-old patient; postoperative biopsy and immunostaining with Ki-67, CK19, p63 and alpha- smooth muscle actin were performed. It was diagnosed basal cell adenocarcinoma that invades the tumor capsule, periglandular fat and lymph nodes. Immunostaining with Ki-67, CK19, p63 and alpha- smooth muscle actin was positive. Subsequently, a maxillary sinus metastasis was diagnosed. The morphological characteristics, Ki-67 expression strongly positive and metastasis give the malignant character to this tumor, which differentiates it from the basal cell adenoma.
