Review of Salivary Gland Neoplasms
Salivary gland tumours most often present as painless enlarging masses. Most are located in the parotid glands and most are benign. The principal hurdle in their management lies in the difficulty in distinguishing benign from malignant tumours.

متن کاملMalignant Salivary Gland Tumours
PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) immunoreactivity is high in malignancy. (Also ki67 antibodies) and thus provides a useful diagnostic tool. Ki67 has prognostic significance in Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma. Bcl 2 and apoptotic index are good prognostic markers. Bax is proapoptotic (in salivary neoplasms there is decreased Bcl 2 and increased Bax leading to increased apoptosis ) Cytokeratin ...
متن کاملAn update on salivary gland pathology.
Over the past few decades, salivary gland tumor pathology has evolved. This includes recognition of newly defined entities as well as reclassification of other salivary gland tumors [1]. The development of genetic tests have shown that some salivary gland tumors have genetic abnormalities which are specific to a histologic type such as MECT1– MAML2 gene fusion in mucoepidermoid carcinoma and PL...
متن کاملMTA1 Expression in Benign and Malignant Salivary gland Tumors
Introduction: Salivary gland tumors (SGTs) are important parts of human neoplasms. The most common SGT is pleomorphic adenoma and the most common malignant SGTs are mucoepidermoid carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC). Metastasis-associated genes 1 (MTA1), a member of the nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylation complex, is one newly discovered gene which recruits histone deacetyl...
