histopathological study of neoplasstic lesions of salivary gland

Key Points

Histopathological examination identified pleomorphic adenoma as the most prevalent benign tumor in salivary glands.
Adenoid cystic carcinoma was found to be the most frequent malignant tumor, comprising 38.5% of cases.
Over 82 salivary gland lesions were studied over a decade, confirming the importance of thorough histopathological evaluation.
The analysis emphasizes that histopathology is essential for accurately diagnosing the diverse lesions of salivary glands.

Abstract

This study was conducted for 10 years in Government Medical College Miraj during the period of August 2003 to July 2013. Total number of salivary gland lesions included were 82.Major salivary glands were involved in 88.5% of salivary gland tumors. Pleomorphic adenoma (59.6%) was the commonest benign tumor. Whereas commonest malignant tumor was adenoid cystic carcinoma constituted 38.5 % of all malignant salivary gland tumors.Histopathology remains the gold standard method for diagnosis because of histomorphological diversity.
