BACKGROUND AND AIMS Salivary gland tumors are rare and specific lesions. There are differences in the incidence and frequency of salivary tumors in both minor and major salivary glands in different countries. This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of major and minor salivary gland tumors in Ahvaz in the south of Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS All the cases, recorded in Imam Khome...

OBJECTIVE This study proposes a revision of the literature on the current techniques employed in salivary gland biopsy. METHODS A systematic review of the literature between January 1990 and January 2010 was conducted using MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. The search terms were: 'biopsy AND parotid AND Sjögren'; 'biopsy AND sublingual salivary gland AND ...

The pleomorphic adenoma, also known as mixed tumor, presents an epithelial and mesenchymal histological structure, being also called epithelioma with altered stroma. The pleomorphic adenoma has a frequency of 70% of major salivary gland tumors, being located preponderantly at the level of parotid gland (52-84%), at the level of submandibular glands (7-17%) and at the level of the other salivary...

Oral manifestations may be the earliest indicators of HIV infection as it has strong association with oral candidiasis, hairy leukoplakia, linear gingival erythema, necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis, periodontitis, Kaposi sarcoma, and lymphoma. Other conditions such diffuse infiltrative lymphocytosis syndrome, benign lymphoepithelial cyst, salivary gland neoplasm have also been reported in pati...

Hemangiomas are defined as soft tissue lesions in the maxillofacial or oral region. Hemangiomas of salivary glands constitute 30% of the non-epithelial tumors in major salivary glands.  Benign tumors in salivary glands are located 85% in parotid gland and 13% in submandibular gland. We present a case of submandibular hemangioma in an infant patient that had some complications and a challenging ...

Despite a pivotal role in salivary gland development, homeostasis, and disease, the role of salivary gland mesenchyme is not well understood. In this study, we used the Col1a1-GFP mouse model to characterize the salivary gland mesenchyme in vitro and in vivo. The Col1a1-GFP transgene was exclusively expressed in the salivary gland mesenchyme. Ex vivo culture of mixed salivary gland cells in DME...

Centrally occurring salivary gland tumors are rare. Because of a considerable overlap between the clinical and histopathological features, this group of tumors often produces a diagnostic difficulty to the clinicians and oral pathologists. Acinic cell carcinoma (ACC) is an unusual, low-grade, malignant salivary gland tumor that represents approximately 2% of the salivary gland tumors with almos...

J Korean Assoc Oral Maxillofac Surg 2012;38:366-70) Initially described in 1929, Warthin’s tumor is a benign neoplasm predominantly found in the parotid gland of the salivary glands. Warthin’s tumor is synonymous for cystadenoma lymphomatosum, adenolymphoma, and cystadenolymphoma. This tumor usually causes minimal pain, but the patient may complain of tinnitus, pain in the ear, or deafness. The...
