Remarkable Triple Pleomorphic Adenoma Affecting both Parotid and Submandibular Glands.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this article is to present the first case reported in the literature of metachronous pleomorphic adenoma of bilateral parotid glands and submaxillary gland. The authors report the case of a 27-year-old female with metachronous mixed tumors in her right parotid and submandibular glands. The patient has no history of previous radiotherapy. All three lesions were diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration. The histopathologic evaluation of all three major salivary gland masses demonstrated pleomorphic adenomas, with no occult malignancy observed on serial sections. The presentation of pleomorphic adenomas in the parotids and submandibular glands probably represents three unrelated primary sites of tumor, yet the possibility of metastasis from one gland to the other cannot be excluded.

Parotid Quadrantectomy Is a Safe Management for Localized Pleomorphic Adenoma.

Project description:Aim:Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign tumor of the parotid gland and is classically treated with superficial or total parotidectomy. Less radical surgeries have been proposed to minimize the risk of facial nerve injury. The oncological safety of these procedures remains controversial. We conducted this study to evaluate the safety of superficial hemi-lobectomy (quadrantectomy). Patients and methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted on the paraffin sections of archived superficial parotidectomy specimens from 11 male and 6 female patients (median age 33?years). The microscopic extent of extra-capsular extension was determined on pathological revision. In addition, prospective evaluation of 12 quadrantectomy procedures (M/F?=?7/5, median age?=?36?years) compared to 24 radical surgeries (M?=?F, median age?=?40?years) regarding temporary and persistent facial nerve dysfunction on routine clinical assessment and recurrence rate. Results:On retrospective pathological revision, pleomorphic adenomata had a median microscopic spread of 3?mm beyond capsule in paraffin sections (SD?=?3.6). On prospective analysis with a median follow-up of 33?months (range?=?18-54?months), quadrantectomy had similar relative risk of temporary facial nerve dysfunction evaluated at the immediate postoperative period as well as persistent nerve dysfunction assessed at 3?months (P?=?0.701 and P?=?0.902, respectively). Of the whole study population, one case of recurrence after total parotidectomy was observed at mid-term follow-up (P?=?1.000). Conclusion:Parotid quadrantectomy is a safe management for smaller pleomorphic adenomata localized close to one of the two divisions of the facial nerve.

Increase in Chymase-Positive Mast Cells in Recurrent Pleomorphic Adenoma and Carcinoma Ex Pleomorphic Adenoma of the Parotid Gland.

Project description:Incomplete excision of pleomorphic adenoma (PA) may result in recurrent pleomorphic adenoma (RPA). Furthermore, long-term neglected PA may become carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA). In the present study, the relationships between mast cell-derived chymase and these tumors were examined. The tumor tissues of PA consisted of either or both glandular and fibrotic structures. Histological features of RPA were almost similar to those of PA, except that they showed multinodular structures. CXPA is composed of a mixture of PA and carcinoma. The main stromal cells in PA were myofibroblasts, whereas fibroblasts constituted the main cellular portion in the stromal tissue of RPA. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) were present abundantly in CXPA. With increased VEGF expression, neovascularization tended to increase in RPA or CXPA. Compared with PA, chymase-positive mast cells, as well as chymase gene expression, were increased in the tumor tissues from patients with RPA or CXPA. SCF, TGFβ1, and PCNA-positive staining was widely observed in these tumor tissues. The above results suggest that mast cell-derived chymase through its direct or cooperative effects with other mediators may participate in the pathophysiology of RPA and CXPA.

Three-dimensional cultures of mouse submandibular and parotid glands: a comparative study.

Project description:Freshly isolated salivary cells can be plated on an extracellular matrix, such as growth factor-reduced Matrigel (GFR-MG), to induce the formation of three-dimensional (3D) structures. Cells grown on GFR-MG are able to form round structures with hollow lumina, capable of sustaining amylase expression. In contrast, cells grown on plastic do not exhibit these features. Our recent studies have used mouse parotid gland (PG) cells, grown on different extracellular matrices, as a model for acinar formation. However, PG cells were not able to respond to the secretory agonist carbachol beyond 5?days and did not sustain polarity over time, regardless of the substratum. An alternative option relies in the use of mouse submandibular glands (SMG), which are more anatomically accessible and yield a larger number of cells. We compared SMG and PG cell clusters (partially dissociated glands) for their ability to form hollow round structures, sustain amylase and maintain secretory function when grown on GFR-MG. The results were as follows: (a) SMG cell clusters formed more organized and larger structures than PG cell clusters; (b) both SMG and PG cell clusters maintained ?-amylase expression over time; (c) SMG cell clusters maintained agonist-induced secretory responses over time; and (d) SMG cell clusters maintained secretory granules and cell-cell junctions. These results indicate that mouse SMG cell clusters are more amenable for the development of a bioengineered salivary gland than PG cell clusters, as they form more organized and functional structures.

Massive transcranial parotid pleomorphic adenoma: recurrence after 30 years.

Project description:Pleomorphic adenoma, also known as benign mixed tumor, is the most common tumor affecting the parotid gland and can reach massive size; however, intracranial invasion is rare. Recurrence of pleomorphic adenoma after excision is a well-known phenomenon and can present decades after resection of the primary tumor. Here we present the case of a 53-year-old man who presented to our clinic with ear fullness, otalgia, and hearing loss 30 years after undergoing total parotidectomy and external beam radiotherapy for pleomorphic adenoma. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a massive transcranial tumor invading the mastoid cavity, the dura of the posterior fossa, the fallopian and semicircular canals, the jugular foramen, the lateral infratemporal fossa skull base, the sigmoid and transverse sinuses, and the superior parapharyngeal region. Gross examination and histopathological studies confirmed that the mass was a recurrent pleomorphic adenoma. Here we discuss the features of recurrent pleomorphic adenoma and review the current literature.

A case of lipomatous pleomorphic adenoma in the parotid gland: a case report.

Project description:IntroductionPleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign neoplasm of the salivary glands. Extensive lipomatous involvement of the tumor is, however, a very rare finding.Case reportHerein, a rare case of lipomatous pleomorphic adenoma arising in the parotid gland of a 14-year-old Japanese woman is presented.ConclusionThis is the sixth case of lipomatous pleomorphic adenoma in the English literature. Recognition of this rare subtype of pleomorphic adenoma is important for clinical diagnosis and management. On CT scan, it may not be detected possibly due to the extensive fatty component.

Comparison of Different Machine Models Based on Multi-Phase Computed Tomography Radiomic Analysis to Differentiate Parotid Basal Cell Adenoma From Pleomorphic Adenoma.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study explored the value of different radiomic models based on multiphase computed tomography in differentiating parotid pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and basal cell tumor (BCA) concerning the predominant phase and the optimal radiomic model.MethodsThis study enrolled 173 patients with pathologically confirmed parotid tumors (training cohort: n=121; testing cohort: n=52). Radiomic features were extracted from the nonenhanced, arterial, venous, and delayed phases CT images. After dimensionality reduction and screening, logistic regression (LR), K-nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM) were applied to develop radiomic models. The optimal radiomic model was selected by using ROC curve analysis. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression was performed to analyze clinical-radiological characteristics and to identify variables for developing a clinical model. A combined model was constructed by integrating clinical and radiomic features. Model performances were assessed by ROC curve analysis.ResultsA total of 1036 radiomic features were extracted from each phase of CT images. Sixteen radiomic features were considered valuable by dimensionality reduction and screening. Among radiomic models, the SVM model of the arterial and delayed phases showed superior predictive efficiency and robustness (AUC, training cohort: 0.822, 0.838; testing cohort: 0.752, 0.751). The discriminatory capability of the combined model was the best (AUC, training cohort: 0.885; testing cohort: 0.834).ConclusionsThe diagnostic performance of the arterial and delayed phases contributed more than other phases. However, the combined model demonstrated excellent ability to distinguish BCA from PA, which may provide a non-invasive and efficient method for clinical decision-making.

Quantitative promoter methylation differentiates carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma from pleomorphic salivary adenoma.

Project description:BACKGROUND: potential epigenetic biomarkers for malignant transformation to carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (Ca ex PSA) have been sought previously with and without specific comparison with the benign variant, pleomorphic salivary adenoma (PSA). Previous analysis has been limited by a non-quantitative approach. We sought to demonstrate quantitative promoter methylation across a panel of tumour suppressor genes (TSGs) in both Ca ex PSA and PSA. METHODS: quantitative methylation-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction (qMSP) analysis of p16(INK4A), CYGB, RASSF1, RAR?, human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), Wilms' tumour 1 (WT1) and TMEFF2 gene promoters was undertaken on bisulphite-converted DNA, previously extracted from archival fixed tissue specimens of 31 Ca ex PSA and an unrelated cohort of 28 PSA. All target regions examined had formerly been shown to be hypermethylated in salivary and/or mucosal head and neck malignancies. RESULTS: the qMSP demonstrated abnormal methylation of at least one target in 20 out of 31 (64.5%) Ca ex PSA and 2 out of 28 (7.1%) PSA samples (P<0.001). RASSF1 was the single gene promoter for which methylation is shown to be a statistically significant predictor of malignant disease (P<0.001) with a sensitivity of 51.6% and a specificity of 92.9%. RAR?, TMEFF2 and CYGB displayed no apparent methylation, while a combinatory epigenotype based on p16, hTERT, RASSF1 and WT1 was associated with a significantly higher chance of detecting malignancy in any positive sample (odds ratio: 24, 95% CI: 4.7-125, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: we demonstrate the successful application of qMSP to a large series of historical Ca ex PSA samples and report on a panel of TSGs with significant differences in their methylation profiles between benign and malignant variants of pleomorphic salivary adenoma. qMSP analysis could be developed as a useful clinical tool to differentiate between Ca ex PSA and its benign precursor.
