Abstract
Introduction:Salivary neoplasms (SN) are rare but not uncommoncondition. Benign and malignant tumors can arise from both epithelial and mesenchymal cells. Parotid gland is most commonly involved. Diagnosis and treatment remain complex and challenging since facial nerve passes right through the middle of the gland. Material and methods: we obtained following data from medical record. We had 30 cases of salivary neoplasms.Out of 30, 28 were parotidneoplasms , 1 from submandibular gland and 1 from minor salivary gland. Among 28 parotid neoplasms, 25 were benigntumors and 3 were malignant tumors. Out of 25 benign tumors, 22 were pleomorphic adenomas and 3 were Warthinstumors. Among malignant parotid neoplasms,2 were mucoepidermoid and 1 adenoid cystic carcinoma. Though age incidence was spanned from 2nd - 6 th , more number of cases we observed indecades. Sex incidence: Male to female ratio is 1.5:1 showing little male preponderance. FNAC was more diagnostic in pleomorphic adenoma, inconclusive in case ofWarthins tumor andmalignant tumors. Treatment: Superficial parotidectomy was done including malignant tumors. submandibular gland andminor salivary gland tumor was excised.The aim of our study is to evaluate the demographic and clinicopathological data of salivary neoplasm in our area.
