  • Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common neoplasm of the parotid gland, generally presenting as a slowly growing, firm, well-circumscribed, painless nodule. It is often difficult to separate into benign and malignant categories because its bland histomorphologic and cytologic features. This tumor can be rarely associated with cystic change, hemorrhagic necrosis, or spontaneous infarction. Necrosis of lesional tissue may be associated with malignant transformation, particularly in a pleomorphic adenoma. We report a case of 50-year-old woman presented with a enlarging right parotid mass. Computed tomographic scan demonstrated a right superficial lobe mass with ill-defined border. The preoperative fine needle aspiration yielded necrotic debris and atypical squamous elements that were thought to be compatible with high degree of mucoepidermoid carcinoma. A total parotidectomy with intraoperative frozen section revealed extensive necrosis and diagnosed as malignant tumor. This tumor was finally diagnosed as a pleomorphic adenoma with necrosis on permanent sections. Caution should be exercised in evaluation of the parotid neoplasms with central necrosis to avoid misdiagnosis of such lesions as malignancy.

  • The present study was based on the multicenter study and retrospective method of 200 patients with intraoral minor salivary gland tumors which were received at the Yonsei university dental hospital, Soonchunhyang Bucheon hospital and Yonsei university Severance hospital from 1990 to 2006. In this study, 61.5% of the cases were benign tumor and 38.5% were malignant tumor. Of the benign tumors, pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign tumor (n=104) and Warthin's tumor, lymphangioma, myoepithelioma and basal cell adenoma were followed. Of the malignant tumors, adenoid cystic carcinoma was the most common malignant tumor (n=32) and mucoepidermoid carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma, metastatic adenocarcinoma and acinic cell carcinoma were followed. The most common primary tumor location was palate. The result of this study was compared with other previous reviews and showed some differences.

  • Pleomorphic adenoma is a circumscribed tumor characterized microscopically by its pleomorphic or mixed appearance, and its clearly recognizable tissue intermingled with areas of mucoid, myxoid, or chondroid appearance. Plemorphic adenoma, the most common tumor of the salivary glands, is now generally accepted as epithelial and benign, and therefore an adenoma. Pleomorphic adenoma occurs about 10 times more often in the parotid gland than in the submandibular gland, and is rare in the sublingual gland of the major salivary gland. And it occurs most often in the parotid and lip, but is very rare in the buccal mucosa of the minor salivary gland. The reported age of occurrence for pleomorphic adenoma ranges from 5 to 84 years, with a peak incidence during the third decade. We experienced a case of pleomorphic adenoma which occurring in buccal mucosa of 13-year-old boy. And so both the site of origin and age of occurrence make this case unusual. This lesion was treated with surgical excision. No specific change has seen in 1 year postoperative follow-up.

  • A case of epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma transformed in pleomorphic adenoma occurring in palate of a 61 years old woman is reported. The tum or was composed of 2 different components, pleomorphic adenoma and epithelial myoepithelial carcinoma, accounting for approximately 40% and 60% of whole tumor, respectively. As the results of the immunohistopathologic study, epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma showed multiple tubular or solid nest, which were separated by a basement membrane and considered of variable proportion of 2 cell types, cuboidal epithelial cells positive for cytokeratin and clear myoepithelial cells positive for glial fibrillary acid protein, wheres the myoepithelial nest of pleomorphic adenoma intermingled with hyaline and myxoid stroma. The malignancy was demonstrated by convincing evidence of invasion into the submucosa, although the epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma component was mostly surrounded by the pleomorphic adenoma componemts. An increased immunoreactivity of proliferating cell nuclear antign in the epithelial myoepithelial carcinoma area in comparison to the pleomorphic adenoma also suggested epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma arising in a pleomorphic adenoma.

  • Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common salivary gland neoplasm and most of them arise in the parotid gland. Pleomorphic adenomas at other sites than salivary glands have rarely been reported. We experienced a patient with pleomorphic adenoma of larynx. A 59 year-old female patient visited outpatient clinic complaining of voice change and foreign body sensation. Round mass at right vocal process was found in laryngoscopic exam. We performed laryngoscopic microsurgery to remove the tumor. Histologically, it was diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma. Recurrence or complication did not occur during the follow up period of 3 years.

  • Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign mixed salivary gland neoplasm that accounts for 65% of all benign salivary glands tumors. While the majority arises from the parotid, only a 10% arises from the minor salivary glands. Pleomorphic adenoma of minor salivary gland in the palate is a common entity. However, they occur in the lip, cheek, tongue oropharynx and nasal cavity etc., rarely. We experienced a case of a 80 years old female presented a 10 years history of a right cheek mass which was proved to the pleomorphic adenoma on the histopathologic examination. We resected the mass and obtained good postoperative results. We report this case with a review of literature.

  • Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) is a rare type of low-grade malignant tumor that account for approximately 0.5% to 1% of salivary gland neoplasm and arises most commonly in the parotid gland (80%). We introduce three cases of parotid EMC arose as painless cystic mass in male patients over 70 years old. All patients were diagnosed as benign tumors (pleomorphic adenoma) by image and pathologic study (fine needle aspiration) before surgery, but the final histopathologic results were EMC. All three patients underwent parotidectomy without adjuvant radiotherapy. There were no complications such as facial paralysis. No complications or recurrences were observed during follow-up for 6 to 9 months. Since the reports of EMC are still relatively few, we report our three cases with the clinical and pathological review.

  • Pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland typically presents as painless, mobile mass of long duration, and originate in the superficial lobe but, more rarely these tumors may involve the deep lobe of the parotid gland. The average size of a parotid neoplasm is 2 to 4 cm. The effective treatment of parotid pleomorphic adenoma is surgical excision. The simple excision or enucleation resulted in recurrence rate of 45% in benign tumor. Therefore, the superficial parotidectomy with identification and preservation of the facial nerve is now the most widely accepted surgery. We report a case of the huge pleomorphic adenoma of the left parotid gland in a 67-year-old man who complained the large mass, measured about $10\times7\times5$cm-sized, in front of the left ear and on the mandibular ascending ramus. The diagnosis was confirmed by the clinical examination, computed tomographic scan, fine needle aspiration, and incisional biopsy. Superficial parotidectomy including the tumor and preservation of the facial nerve using the modified Blair approach was performed. And satisfactory results have been obtained cosmetically and functionally.
