ADENOMAS Gregory Noah Henry Lyfiona Wesley Ros Alwani Izatty Lim
Benign 80% parotid gland, followed by submandibular gland and other minor salivary gland Introduction Epithelial Mesenchymal Pleomorphic adenoma Hemangioma Adenolymphoma ( Warthin tumor) Lymphangioma Oncocytoma Lipoma Other adenomas Neurofibroma
Mixed tumor Most common Arise commonly from parotid gland (tail) Pleomorphic Adenoma
CLINICAL FEATURES: 30-40 y/o Female Characteristic of tumor: Slow growing Painless Firm, single nodular mass Dysphagia (if deep lobe if involve) Deviation of uvula & pharyngeal wall towards midline Facial nerve not involve Malignant transformation Pleomorphic Adenoma
CLINICAL FEATURES Male (5:1) Usually arise from tail of parotid Characteristic of tumor: Rounded Encapsulated Cystic Mucoid / brownish fluid Adenolymphoma
HISTOLOGICAL FINDINGS: Epithelial & lymphoid element Stroma : Lymphoid Germinal center formation Adenolymphoma
Most common benign tumour of parotid in children Hemangioma
CLINICAL FEATURES: Children , predominantly affecting females Mostly discovered at birth Characteristic of tumor: Grow rapidly in the neonatal period & then involute spontaneously Soft Painless Increase in size with crying or straining Overlying skin: May show bluish discoloration Hemangioma
INVESTIGATION: MANAGEMENT: Surgical excision: If do not regress spontaneously Hemangioma
Less common May involve parotid & submandibular gland Due to lymphatic sequestration of primitive embryonic lymph duct that undergo irregular growth and canalization. Lymphangiomas (Cystic Hygroma )
CLINICAL FEATURES: Can occur at any age, any part of body More common in children < 2 years, involve head & neck Characteristic of tumor: Slow growing Soft (doughy) Cystic Usually painless Spongy, multiloculated mass Yellowish or bluish surface Airway obstruction & swallowing difficutly Lymphangiomas (Cystic Hygroma )
HISTOLOGICAL FINDINGS: Large dilated spaces Formed by endothelial-lined space Lymphangiomas (Cystic Hygroma )
INVESTIGATION: HPE Prenatal Case: Ultrasound Amniocentesis MANAGEMENT: Medical: sclerosing agents: OK-432 (an inactive strain of group A Streptococcus pyogenes) Bleomycin pure ethanol sodium tetradecyl sulfate doxycycline Surgical excision Preservation of vital structure Cosmetic reason Lymphangiomas (Cystic Hygroma )
