We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of combination of propranolol and sclerotherapy in treating parotid hemangiomas. Twenty-six parotid hemangiomas patients were subjected to combined treatment from January 2009 and June 2014. The effects of the therapy modality were evaluated. Nineteen patients were females and 7 were males. The median age of treatment initiation was 4.96 months. Twelve lesions ...
DE-DIFFERENTIATION OF PAROTID ACINAR CELLS IN VITRO Andrew S. Currie July 16, 2010 Background: When rat salivary gland cells are cultured in vitro, they dedifferentiate within 24 h. Hypothesis: Growth factors will prevent de-differentiation of primary cultures of parotid gland cells, and they will induce differentiation of ParC5 cells. DNA methylation drives de-differentiation and the loss of e...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Weak or absent CT enhancement in pleomorphic adenomas of the parotid gland has been observed immediately after i.v. contrast administration. This feature can result in poor lesion conspicuity relative to both normal parotid tissue and other parotid abnormalities. The purpose of this study was to document the delayed CT enhancement characteristics of parotid pleomorphic ad...
BACKGROUND A modified Blair's incision or standard facelift incision is recommended to remove tumors in the accessory parotid gland. These incisions frequently result in long and visible scars. Therefore, the authors have introduced an endoscopic approach via a small preauricular incision to achieve excision of benign tumors in the accessory parotid gland. METHODS The endoscopic surgical tech...
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma on the parotid gland is a relatively rare occurrence among head and neck tumors. The mass of parotid gland lymphoma cannot be distinguished from other benign masses of the parotid gland; therefore, it is important to consider lymphoma in the differential diagnosis when examining parotid swellings and masses. Parotid gland lymphoma is most likely to be B-cell, non-Hodgkin'...
Objectives: The aim of this paper is to establish a correct approach to the diagnosis of a primary malignant melanoma of the parotid gland. Methods: We present a case of a patient with a painless mass situated in the left parotid region after an initial cytological and radiological study suggesting a Warthin tumor whose treatment involved a total parotidectomy with a facial nerve reconstruction...
Parotid lymph node (LN) metastasis occurs most commonly from cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) of the head and neck, but rarely from oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Here, we present a rare case of metastasis to the parotid LN in a patient with tongue cancer. Although usual extent of modified radical neck dissection that includes resection of the tail of the parotid gland is below th...
The major salivary glands consist of the parotid, the submandibular, and the sublingual glands. Under the control of the parasympathetic nervous system, the major salivary glands are responsible for the principal portion of saliva produced, which can be as much as 1.5 liters per day. The minor salivary glands of the oral cavity, pharynx, and upper airways contribute only a small percentage of t...
INTRODUCTION Tuberculosis of the parotid gland is a rare clinical entity which causes some difficulties in diagnosis because of the similarities in presentation to that of a neoplasm. Diagnosis mainly relies in the treating physician having a high index of suspicion. The diagnosis is generally overlooked by otolaryngologists and most cases are undergoing unnecessary surgery. CASE PRESENTATION...
OBJECTIVE To assess the value of the parotid biopsy as a diagnostic tool for primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS), and to compare the parotid biopsy and the labial biopsy with regard to diagnostic value and biopsy-related morbidity. METHODS In 15 consecutive patients with pSS and 20 controls, the parotid biopsy was assessed as a diagnostic tool based on the presence of lymphocytic foci, benign ly...
