Journal Title: Indian Journal of Pathology and Oncology - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction Salivary gland neoplasms though relatively rare have a varied histological spectrum both in the benign and malignant tumors and hence are of interest to pathologistsAim of the study To study the histomorphological patterns of salivary gland tumorsMaterials and Methods This was a two year four month prospective study from January 2015 to April 2017 The salivary gland specimens received in histopathology section of Department of Pathology Government Medical College Nizamabad Telangana were studied for light microscopyResults Present study included 80 cases with patient age ranging from 11 to 78 years and the male to female ratio was 31 In the present study 625 cases were benign and 375 were malignant Pleomorphic adenoma was the commonest benign tumor followed by Warthins tumor monomorphic adenoma and basal cell adenoma Mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most common malignant tumor followed by adenoid cystic carcinoma acinic cell carcinoma and carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenomaConclusion Of all salivary glands Parotid glands are most commonly affected by tumors Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign tumor and Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor in salivary glandsKeywords Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma Pleomorphic adenoma Salivary gland tumors
