Primary malignancies of hard palate are rare, espicially adenocarcinoma of minor salivary gland in hard palate. The clinical stage of the tumor and its histologic grade at the time of treatment were significant predictors of survival. A 33-year-old woman was diagnosed with stage II, polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma of the hard palate and treated with surgery. We thougt that she would have excellent prognosis. After that, there was no definite evidence of recurrence during 3 months. Since then, the patient herself decided to discontunue follow-up. 9 years after that she came to the hospital due to both submandibular mass without any sign of local recurrence. CT scan and biopsy of the mass revealed multiple cervical metastatic adenocarcinoma without distant metastasis and the histologic findings were similar to that of the primary hard palate adenocarcinoma. So, we present this case with the review of literature.

Background and Objectives: Nodal metastasis is one of the prognostic factors in salivary gland cancer. The purpose of this study is to identify risk factors of nodal metastasis considered as a predictor of poor prognosis in patients with salivary gland cancer. Material and Methods: The authors retrospectively studied 82 patients with salivary gland cancer who underwent surgery from 1992 to 2002. We analyzed age, sex, tumor size, histologic type and 5-year survival rate to compare patients with and without nodal metastasis. Results: Mean age was 55.4 years, with a male-female ratio of 1 : 1.28. The overall 5-year survival rate was 85.5%. Among the 82 patients, 14 patients had nodal metastasis. There was no nodal metastasis in low grade malignancy. In patients without nodal metastasis, mean age was 52.5 years and the overall 5-year survival rate was 94.2%. In patients with nodal metastasis, mean age was 69.4 years and the overall 5-year survival rate was 42.9%. In patients with less advanced cancer (T1-T2 stage), the nodal metastasis was 7.5% and with advanced cancer (T3-T4 stage), 33.3%. Conclusion: Nodal metastasis significantly decreases survival in patients with salivary gland malignancy. High grade malignancy, large tumor size and old age are important risk factors of nodal metastasis. Nodal metastasis is more common in submandibular gland cancer compared with parotid gland cancer.

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignant neoplasm of the salivary gland, compring between 30 and 40%. Fine needle apsiration cytology was performed in five patients with mucoepidermoid carcinoma. The patients consisted of three males aged of 42, 48, and 60 years, and two females aged 36, and 56 years. The primary tumor sites were the parotid gland in four patients and the submandibular gland in the rest one. The histologic grades were low in one patient, intermediate in two patients and high in other two. In our experience, the common cytologic findings of low grade subtype were predominent mucous cells with some intermediate cells in an abundant mucinous background. The cytologic findings of intermediate grade subtype were predominant clusters of intermediate cells with or without mucous cells in an abundant mucinous background. And the cytologic findings of high grade subtype were predominant clusters of epidermoid cells with intermediate cells in a bloody background. Cytologic pleomorphism and atypia were more severe in high grade than low and intermediate grade, and nucleoli were more frequently noted in epidermoid cells. In low grade, it is very difficult to decide the benignancy or malignancy of the tumor. In fact, the presence of mucous cells in a mucinous background should rule out any other type of well differentiated carcinoma.

Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of oral cancer and odontogenic myxoma is relatively uncommon benign tumor of mesenchymal origin. There are, to our knowledge, no prior reports of simultaneously occurring squamous cell carcinoma and odontogenic myxoma of the jaw bones. In this case, at first, the plain films and computed tomograms revealed a large expansile multilocular radiolucent lesion on left mandible and marked expansion of cortical plate. In addition this radiograms revealed also infiltrative bony destruction of anterior and medial border of ascending ramus of left mandible and alveolar bone of left maxilla, floating teeth on left lower molar area and metastatic enlargement of left submandibular, jugular digastric and spinal accessory lymphnodes. Magnetic resonance imaging of this patient revealed infiltrative growth of tumor on alveolar bone of left maxilla, left retromolar fat pad. left masseter and left medial pterygoid muscle. Intraoral presurgical biopsy presented typical features of squamous cell carcinoma. After chemotherapy with radiation therapy during 6 months. this central lesion was diagnosed as odontogenic myxoma by the postsurgical biopsy. After 3 months, this patient presented multiple metastatic signs at lumbar spines, rib and liver. Consequently, our case is simultaneous occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma and odontogenic myxoma.

Mammary analogue secretory carcinoma (MASC) has histologic similarities to not only acinic cell carcinoma but also other low grade cystadenocarcinoma, and has similar features to breast secretory carcinoma. MASC was not described through the existing classification system previously. But, MASC was distinguished from other salivary gland tumors by Skalova et al. in 2010, MASC has ets variant gene 6-neurotrophic tyrosine kinase, receptor, type 3 (ETV6-NTRK3) translocation. So far, there are 4 cases of MASC recognized in the head and neck region in Korea. One of the four is a tumor from the submandibular gland, and the other three are of the parotid gland. In this case report, we report a 40-year-old man with a MASC of the parotid gland, who presented with right infra-auricular mass.

7살의 중성화된 수컷 보스턴테리어 개가 호흡곤란과 편측성 목부위 혹으로 내원하였다. 신체검사에서 왼쪽 아래턱밑 부위의 혹이 촉진되었다. 컴퓨터단층촬영 검사 결과 이 혹은 왼쪽 혀정맥 유래의 종양으로 의심되었다. 보호자의 거부로 치료가 진행되지 못했으며 내원 10일 후 호흡부전으로 폐사하였다. 부검에서 경계가 분명한 혹이 왼쪽 후두부위에서 확인되었으며 병리조직학적, 면역조직화학적 검사가 시행되었다. 컴퓨터단층촬영, 병리조직학적, 면역조직화학적 검사를 토대로 왼쪽 혀정맥에서 유래한 목부위 곁신경절종으로 최종진단되었다. 본 증례보고는 개에서 발생한 혀정맥 유래 목부위 곁신경절종의 임상적, 컴퓨터단층촬영, 병리조직학적 및 면역조직화학적 특징들을 잘 나타내고 있다.

구강 내 설암은 설의 전방 삼분의 이에서 발생하는 것으로 근치적 요법으로는 수술과 방사선 치료가 그 근간을 이루어 왔으며, 같은 병기에서 두 요법간의 완치율은 거의 동일한 것으로 보고되고 있다. 특히 조기병소(T1, T2)에서는 이 두 요법간에 비슷한 국소 퇴치율을 보이므로 치료법의 선택에는 그 치료로 인해 발생하는 기능적 손상 및 미용적 결손을 최소화하는데 역점을 두어야 할 것이다. 그러므로 큰 기능적 손상 없이 용이하게 절제할 수 있는 첨단부 및 배부의 작은 병소를 제외하고 대부분의 조기병소는 방사선 요법으로 정상적인 발성 및 연하작용을 유지하며 치료할 수 있다. 그러나 비교적 진행된 병소(late T2, T3) 중 하부 침윤이 심하지 않으면 방사선 치료만으로 완치될 수 있으며 수술은 방사선 치료 후 재발암의 구원요법으로 유보해 두는 것이 바람직할 것이다. 방사선 치료의 방법으로는 외부 조사법 외에 자입요법 등이 있으나 최대의 국소 퇴치를 위해서는 자입요법이 필수적인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 자입요법으로 치료기간을 단축할 수 있음은 말할 것도 없고 투여되는 선량을 증가시킴으로서 국소 퇴치율의 향상을 기대하고 나아가 생존율을 높일 수 가 있을 것이다.

Leiomyosarcoma is a malignant neoplasm of smooth muscle origin and mostly originate from the wall of uterus and gastrointestinal tract, but primary leiomyosarcoma of the oral cavity is extremely rare. This tumor has a very poor prognosis due to high recurrence and metastasis rate, with 5 year survival rate of 32%. And regional lymph node metastasis is uncommon event. Complete wide surgical excision is the treatment of choice. A 64-year old man who had a painful ulcerative lesion on the labial & palatal gingiva of #11, 21 visited our department, and was diagnosed as leiomyosarcoma through a biopsy. Partial maxillectomy was carried out, with no following radiotherapy or chemotherapy. After months follow-up, there has been no evidence of recurrence or metastasis. But after months, we clinically find out two enlarged immobile palpable lymph node in right submandibular area of patient. So a biopsy was performed via an extraoral incision under local anesthesia. Histopathologic diagnosis diagnosis of the biopsy was lymph node metastasis of prior existed leiomyosarcoma. We report a case of a primary leiomyosarcoma occurred in a 64 year-old male patient involving the anterior maxillary region with regional lymph node metastasis with a review of literature.
