discussion benign metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma is a rare and controversial but distinct clinical entity. although the definition of the term benign precludes metastatic disease, these tumors do not demonstrate any malignant features yet metastasized to distinct sites. it remains to be determined whether this benign metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma is really low grade salivary malignancy. ...

dear editor-in-chief   pilomatrixoma is a benign tumor of hair follicle first described as calcifying epithelium (1). it accounts for 1% of all the benign skin tumors (2). it is a slow-growing, firm, dermal or subcutaneous neoplasm, usually measuring fewer than 3 cm in diameter. pilomatricomas are considered benign; rarely recur after surgical excision (3). however, cases of pilomatrixoma with ...

Introduction: Sialolipoma is an extremely rare salivary gland tumor characterized by a well circumscribed mass composed of glandular tissue and mature adipose elements. Herein our aim was to present the fifth case of congenital sialolipoma, which was firstly followed up as a parotid gland hemangioma, and underline the fact that sialolipomas should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis o...
