Sebaceous carcinoma is a relatively rare and aggressive malignant tumor. Periocular area (especially eyelid) is the most common lesion to occur, and the most common extraocular lesion is the parotid gland. Because the lesion also mimic other benign inflammatory diseases, this leads to delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis. Here, we report a 58-year-old male patient who presented with a non-tender painless left parotid mass after wide excision of sebaceous carcinoma in the left eyelid two years ago. When he was diagnosed with sebaceous carcinoma of left eyelid, there was a small left parotid tumor on the computed tomography. But no further examination and treatment were performed. Two years later, physical examination revealed growing parotid tumor and multiple neck nodes on the left side. After radical parotidectomy and neck dissection, histological examination showed a sebaceous carcinoma and neck node metastasis. Considering the aggressiveness of sebaceous carcinoma, further evaluation for parotid glands should be considered when sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid was discovered. Postoperative chemoradiotherapy was performed for disease control. Follow up after two years, and computed tomography showed no sign of recurrence.

Warthin's tumor is the second most common salivary gland benign tumor, typically occurring in the fifth to seventh decades of life which shows an indolent feature. It is usually found in the parotid gland but occasionally in extra-parotid locations such as peri-parotid lymph node. However, Report of solitary Warthin's tumor in cervical lymph node is unusual. We here report a case of 72-year-old male with simultaneous malignant melanoma on eyelid and cervical lymph node enlargement in cervical level II area thus mimicking malignancy metastasis. After excisional biopsy under the local anesthesia, pathology was reported as papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum, which is a histologically pathognomic finding of Warthin's tumor. However, there was no suspicious tumorous lesion in major or minor salivary glands. This case suggests that Warthin's tumor should be considered as a possible pathology in solitary lymph node lesion of neck.

The tumor in accessory parotid gland (APG) is rarely occurred and its incidence is about 7.7% of all parotid gland neoplasms, but has a higher frequency of malignancy than major salivary glands. The mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignancy in APG, while B-cell lymphoma is less than 2%. It is often appeared as superficial mass in mid-cheek area. This lesion requires differential diagnosis with epidermoid cyst, lipoma, neurogenic tumors, Stensen's duct stone, lymphadenopathy and hemangioma etc. The mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, which is also termed extra-nodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma tends to be localized disease for long time and has a relatively indolent course. We recently encountered a 69-year-old man with superficial solitary mass on the right cheek area that finally diagnosed as MALT lymphoma in APG. We report the rare and unique case with brief literature review.

Lymphoepithelial carcinoma, also known as malignant lymphoepithelial lesion or lymphoepithelioma, is a rare tumor in salivary glands. Lymphoepithelial carcinoma has a characteristic histological findings comprising irregularly-shaped nests of malignant epithelial cells within a lymphocyte-rich stroma, occasionally forming lymphoid follicles. We recently experienced a case of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of lymphoepithelial carcinoma of parotid gland in a 61-year-old male. The FNAC yielded a hypercellular smear of many irregular clusters of malignant epithelial cells in the background of lymphoid stroma.

Pleomorphic adenoma is the most prevalent benign tumor of the parotid gland, and shows potential malignancy. Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) can occur in 3%-15% of pleomorphic adenoma cases. Owing to its clinical similarity to benign tumors, critical information related to CXPA can be easily overlooked, leading to frequent misdiagnosis of the condition. In this article, we report a rare case of CXPA found in the 55-year-old male patient with characteristic clinical, radiographic, and histological features, and subsequent treatment.

Sclerosing polycystic adenosis (SPA) is a rare, asymptomatic disease that occurs mainly in the salivary glands. We report the case of a 51-year-old man who presented with trismus and pain upon mouth opening. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 2-cm mass located in the anterior portion of the left parotid gland. SPA was diagnosed based on histopathological examination of the surgical specimen. In pathologic findings, there was a well-circumscribed multicystic nodule in the parenchyma. Dense fibrosis and chronic non-specific inflammatory cells were observed in the stroma. In 13 previous reports on SPA, the most preferred treatment was superficial or total parotidectomy. This report suggests that simple excision of SPA preserves facial nerve function and facial volume.

21세 여자의 이하선에 발생한 다형성 선종과 15세 남자의 이하선에 발생한 신경섬유종에 대하여 변형된 이내 및 경부접근법을 사용한 외과적 절제술을 시행하였다. 우리가 사용한 변형된 이내 및 경부접근법은 Starck 등의 변형된 이내접근법과 Gutierrez의 경부 연장술을 병용한 새로운 접근법이다. 우리는 이 접근법을 사용하여 특별한 문제없이 이하선에 접근하여 종양을 절제하였고, 수술 후 반흔은 외이와 머리카락 내에 감춰져 심미적으로 만족할 만하였다. 이 접근법은 이하선 종양에 이용될 수 있을뿐 아니라 경부 연장을 하지 않고 변형된 이내접근법만을 시행할 경우 악관절수술에도 이용될 수 있다.

Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common salivary benign tumor, constituting over 60% of parotid gland tumor, 25% of sublingual gland tumor and 50% of minor salivary gland tumor. It is somewhat more frequent in the fourth to sixth decades. The recurrent rate which enforces only a simple enucleation is very high $(20{\sim}45%)$. Histologically, it contains the epithelial cell, the myo-epithelial cell and mesenchymal ingredient, which is various aspect. We analyzed clinicopathologically and immunohistochemically the patients(34 cases) who are diagnosed with pleomorphic adenoma in Dept. of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, College of Dentisty, Dankook university since 1998. The results are as follow: 1. The incidence of the tumor was most frequent in age 30 to 50. The ratio of male to female was 1:1.43. 2. The most chief complain was a painless mass(94.1%) and the duration time was more than decade in 18 cases(52.9%). 3. Palate(soft & hard palate) was the most occurred site(64.7%). In major salivary glands, the parotid gland was the most frequent site(17.6%). 4. The tumor size was 2 to 3cm on the average. Most of tumors were with capsule(91.2%). 5. Surgical excision was a main treatment method(20 cases, 58.8%) and 14 cases were excised with a glandectomy, 1 case was treated with a partial maxillectomy. Only 1 case of all cases was recurred. 6. Histopathologically, 9 cases(26.5%) were cellular type, 11 cases(32.4%) were intermediate(classic) type and 14 cases(41.1%) were myxoid type. 7. Immunohistochemically, the specimen of all tumors reacted positively to cytokeratin and vimentin marker.

다형성 선종은 남성보다는 여성에게서 호발하고 발생연령은 40-60대의 중년에서 주로 발생하며 발생부위로는 소타액선의 경우 구개부와 상하순부에서 많이 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 저자는 다형성 선종이 13세의 소아에서 그리고 협부에서 발생한 임상적으로 매우 드문 경우를 경험하였고, 외과적 절제술로 잘 치유되었으며, 소아의 협부에서 발생할 수 있는 여러 다른 종양과의 감별진단이 중요하리라 사료되어 이에 보고하는 바이다.

This is a clinical analysis of 24 cases of parotid gland tumor who were treated in the department of Surgery, Chonnam National University Medical School during the past 10years from January, 1976 to December, 1985. According to this analysis of total 24 cases, we concluded as follows; 1) 21 cases were benign tumors and 3 cases were malignant tumors. As the histopathological findings, benign tumor included 88%and malignant tumor 12%. Majority of benign tumor contained mixed tumor(86.7%), and the malignant tumor contained mucoepidermoid carcinoma (66.7%). 2) The peak age incidence was 40th in benign tumor and 50th in malignant tumor. 3) The chief complaints of patient was a painless mass and the duration of illness was average 5.2 years. 4) The mean size of mass was 4.5cm in diameter. 5) The surgical procedures were performed with excision 6 cases, superficial lobectomy 8 cases, wide excision with partial parotidectomy 4 cases, total parotidectomy 3 cases in benign tumors. In malignant tumors, total parotidectomy 2 cases and wide excision with partial parotidectomy 1 case were performed. 6) Major postoperative complications such as facial nerve palsy 7 cases (temporary ; 5 cases, permanent; 2 cases), Frey syndrome 1 case, seroma 1 case, hematoma 1 case, and wound infection 1 case were developed. The recurrence contained pleomorphic adenoma 1 case and mucoepidermoid carcinoma 1 case.
