Surgical Treatment of Rare Sclerosing Polycystic Adenosis of the Deep Parotid Gland

چکیده
We experienced a rare case of sclerosing polycystic adenosis (SPA) arising in a parotid gland. A 33-year-old man who underwent unspecified surgery for a lesion in the left parotid gland 23 years ago presented with a lesion on the same site. Computed tomography scan revealed an encapsulated 3 × 2 cm lesion. Intraoperative findings showed that the tumor was embedded deep in the parotid gland. Marginal tumor excision was performed to preserve the facial nerve. Histopathological and immunohistochemical findings led to the final diagnosis of SPA. The surgery was not associated with any other complications. To date, 28 months after surgery, recurrence has not been observed. The treatment protocol of SPA has not yet been established. To make plastic surgeons familiar with this disease, we describe this case, which was successfully treated without any complications.

Sclerosing polycystic adenosis of the major salivary glands is rare and can simulate a slow growing tumour. It is pseudoencapsulated and includes tubuloacinar adenosis with dilated ducts, apocrine metaplasia, epithelial hyperplasia, and cystic changes associated with fibrosis. The histological appearance of the lesion is similar to that of fibrocystic disease of the breast. The multifocal natur...

Sclerosing polycyctic adenosis (SPA) is a rare lesion of unknown etiology morphologically resembling fibrocystic changes of the breast. To date, approximately 41 cases of SPA have been reported. Most cases of SPA have originated in the parotid and submandibular glands, with a few cases of intra-oral minor salivary gland origin. This is the first reported case of sclerosing polycystic adenosis o...

Sclerosing polycystic adenosis (SPA) is a rare tumor-like lesion of the salivary gland that bears a histomorphological resemblance to fibrocystic disease and sclerosing adenosis of the breast. The lesion is widely considered to be a pseudoneoplastic inflammatory process. However, foci of epithelial dysplasia and carcinoma in situ can occur in the lesion. We report a case of 16-year-old Thai fem...
