1 SALIVARY GLAND NEOPLASMS

2 STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS OF THE SALIVARY GLAND UNIT

3 ETIOLOGY  Not fully understood.  Two theories predominate: (A) Bicellular stem cell theory (B) Multicellular theory  Bicellular stem cell theory : Tumors arise from 1 of 2 undifferentiated stem cell  (A) Excretory duct reserve cell-squamous cell and mucoepidermoid carcinomas,  (B) Intercalated duct reserve cell- pleomorphic adenomas, oncocytomas, adenoid cystic carcinomas, adenocarcinomas, and acinic cell carcinomas. -

4 CONTD  Multicellular theory:Each tumor type arises from a specific differentiated cell within the salivary gland unit.  Squamous cell carcinomas - excretory duct cells,  pleomorphic adenomas -intercalated duct cells  oncocytomas -striated duct cells,  acinic cell carcinomas -acinar cells.

5 RISK FACTORS  Radiation –Mucoepidermoid carcinoma(mc among malignant),Warthins (mc among benign)  Viral –EBV-lymphoepithelial carcinoma  Tobacco smoking- Warthin tumors  Increased incidence of second primary tumor in patient with thyroid cancer treated with radioiodine.  Controversy:mobile phones- electromagnetic waves-H/N neoplasm

6 CONTD.  Occupational exposure – Silica dust - 2.5-fold increased risk of cancer Rubber workers( nitrosamines)  Iatrogenic-Radiation therapy to the head and neck  Latency period - 11 years for malignant tumors and 21.5 years for benign  Possible protective effect - Diet high in polyunsaturated fatty acids

7 GENETIC ALTERATION AND SALIVARY GLAND NEOPLASM  Tumor suppressor genes- p53 family  Increased expression- p63 and p73( Benign salivary neoplasms, pleomorphic adenomas, myoepitheliomas, and basal cell adenomas).  Overexpression of MDM2(Murine double minute 2 ) along with high-mobility group protein gene (HMGIC) - carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma.

8 CONTD.  PLAG1, translocations,band 8q12-pleomorphic adenomas.  Allelic loss of 19q -adenoid cystic carcinoma  Mucoepidermoid carcinomas -loss of chromosomal arms 2q, 5p, 12p, and 16q.  Increased expression of erb-2 is associated with salivary gland neoplasm.

9 CONTD.  Matrix metalloproteinase-1, tenascin-C, and beta-6 integrin help in tissue invasion by malignant tumors.  In adenoid cystic carcinoma, increased immunoreactivity for nerve growth factor and tyrosine kinase A -correlated with perineural invasion.

10 INCIDENCE  Relatively uncommon 2% of head and neck neoplasms  Distribution Parotid: 80% overall; 80% benign Submandibular: 15% overall; 50% benign Sublingual/Minor: 5% overall; 40% benign

11 MINOR SALIVARY GLAND DISTRIBUTION

12 PATIENT EVALUATION  Clinical Features  Both benign or malignant tumors of the parotid gland -painless swelling.  Benign tumors have a slow growth rate.  A rapid increase in size -suspicion of malignant transformation  Mass in the parotid->Metastasis-from skin cancer (melanoma)- >So examination of facial skin and scalp is mandatory.

13 EXAMINATION  Benign tumors of the parotid gland -usually well-defined, nontender, and freely mobile.  Locates in the "tail" of the parotid gland-superficial or deep lobe.  Dumbbell tumor :Extend from the superficial to the deep lobe through stylomandibular tunnel.  Deep lobe and dumbbell tumor -> parapharyngeal space extension-> medial displacement of oropharyngeal wall

14 DUMBBELL TUMOR

15

16 DEEP LOBE TUMORS OF PAROTID

17 SUBMANDIBULAR GLAND TUMOR LOCATION  Benign tumors of the submandibular gland painless, mobile mass in the submandibular triangle.

18 SUSPICION OF MALIGNANCY  Facial nerve paresis  Ipsilateral weakness or numbness of the tongue indicates involvement the hypoglossal or lingual nerves(malignant tumor of SMG)  pain  Fixation of the mass to the overlying skin or underlying structures (to the mandible in malignant tumor of SMG)  Cervical adenopathy

19 SUSPICION OF MALIGNANCY

20 FINE-NEEDLE ASPIRATION BIOPSY BENIGN TUMORS:  sensitivity -85.5% to 99%  specificity -96.3% to 100%.  Ultrasound-guided FNAB enhance the overall diagnostic accuracy. MALIGNANT LESION:  Accuracy is less in comparision to benign lesion.  Sensitivity-60% to 73%

21 FNAB MIMICRY  Basal cell adenomas- Adenoid cystic carcinoma particularly the solid (anaplastic) type.  Mucoepidermoid carcinoma-Benign salivary gland duct obstruction.  Large cell epithelial lesions of low nuclear grade: oncocytic proliferations and acinic cell carcinoma.

22 IMAGING  CT-SCAN  MRI-SCAN  USG  MRI is better than CT(Dental artifacts obscure vital details of gland in CT-scan)  Pleomorphic adenoma-calcification (CT-SCAN)  Tumor composition better defined in T2 than T1.

23 IMAGING  CT better than MRI in defining cortical bony involvement  Disadvantage of CT-ionizing radiation and requiring contrast for vascular detail.  Disadvantage of MRI: Bony-soft tissue interface is often not clearly distinguishable

24  Deep lobe tumors  Dumb-bell tumors  Parotid tumors with facial weakness  Indication of malignancy  Congenital parotid masses  SMG tumors with mandibular fixation  Tumors of the palate with suspected involvement of nose or maxillary antra  Any tumors with clinically ill defined margins. INDICATIONS OF CT/MR IMAGING MAJOR GLANDS MINOR GLANDS

25 MR SCAN SHOWING PLEOMORPHIC ADENOMA OF DEEP LOBE OF PAROTID

26 PLEOMORPHIC ADENOMA  Most common of all salivary gland neoplasms 70% of parotid tumors 50% of submandibular tumors 45% of minor salivary gland tumors 6% of sublingual tumors  4 th -6 th decades  F:M = 1.4:1(overall) 1.7:1(SMG)

Other sites – buccal space base of tongue retropharyngeal space pterygopalatine fossa lateral nasal wall nasal septum maxillary bone facial skin trachea lung breast

28 PLEOMORPHIC ADENOMA  Despite the abundance of minor salivary glands in the lower lip, pleomorphic adenoma is very rare.  Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign tumor of the lacrimal gland.

29  Gross pathology Smooth Well-demarcated Solid Cystic changes Myxoid stroma Capsule:present (major salivary glands) absent (minor salivary glands ) PLEOMORPHIC ADENOMA  Histology Mixture of epithelial, myopeithelial and stromal components Epithelial cells: nests, sheets, ducts, trabeculae Stroma: myxoid, chrondroid, fibroid, osteoid Tumor pseudopods

30 PLEOMORPHIC ADENOMA GROSS PATHOLOGY

31 PLEOMORPHIC ADENOMA  Treatment: complete surgical excision Parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation Submandibular gland excision Wide local excision of minor salivary gland  Avoid enucleation and tumor spill

32 RECURRENT PLEOMORPHIC ADENOMA  One fourth of pleomorphic adenomas demonstrate pseudopodia from thin capsules.  A cuff of normal tissue should be excised for complete removal of these pseudopods.  Failure to remove these pseudopods –a high chance of recurrence.  Multicentric pattern is characteristic of recurrent pleomorphic adenoma.

94 PRINCIPLES OF MANAGEMENT OF BENIGN SALIVARY GLAND NEOPLASMS  Small adenomas in the tail of the parotid gland only dissection of the lower division of the facial nerve with removal of the tumor and the surrounding parotid tissue  Larger tumors of the superficial lobe -complete superficial parotidectomy.  Deep lobe tumors -total parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation.  Parapharyngeal tumors -cervical-parotid approach and with or without a mandibulotomy.

95  The skin incision is placed in a preauricular crease and extends superiorly to the level of the root of the helix. The incision extends inferiorly around the lobule of ear over the mastoid tip. It gently curves down along the sternocleidomastoid muscle and then slightly forward in a natural skin crease in the upper neck.  The preauricular portion of the incision passes on or just inside the tragal margin. The incision is then carried below the lobule of the ear, turns posteriorly over the mastoid, and is then extended within the hairline INCISIONS modified Blair's incision Modified "facelift" incision for parotidectomy

96 TYPES OF SURGERY IN MALIGNANT PAROTID TUMOR  Superfical parotidectomy  Total conservation parotidectomy  Total radical parotidectomy  Extended Radical parotidectomy

97 TOTAL CONSERVATION PAROTIDECTOMY  INDICATION:  Benign neoplasm of deep lobe.  Recurrent pleomorphic adenoma.  Certain malignant tumors Facial nerve is preserved.

98  Total conservation parotidectomy +Sacrifice of facial nerve. TOTAL RADICAL PAROTIDECTOMY

99 SURAL NERVE GRAFT

100 EXTENDED RADICAL PAROTIDECTOMY  Radical parotidectomy +removal of adjacent structures like ascending ramus of mandible,zygomatic arch,temporalis muscle,sternomastoid muscle(anterior part),EAM and mastoid process.  Radical neck dissection is usually performed along with this procedure.  Larger defect is closed with PMMF.

101 NECK DISSECTION  Elective neck dissection for N0 neck indicated in high grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma,SCC and adenocarcinoma of parotid.  MND type-1 usually performed.
