The purpose of this retrospective chart review study was to review the nature and clinical course of benign and malignant submandibular gland tumors at 2 major university-affiliated tertiary medical centers. All patients who underwent submandibular salivary gland excision between 1990 and 2010 were included. Clinical and disease-related data were collected from the medical charts. One hundred ninety-three patients were identified, of whom 108 (56%) had non-neoplastic disorders (sialolithiasis and sialadenitis). The remaining 85 patients (44%) had a submandibular salivary gland tumor. The most common benign neoplasm was pleomorphic adenoma (53 patients). Twenty tumors (24%) were malignant: adenoid cystic carcinoma in 11 patients, mucoepidermoid carcinoma in 6 patients, and adenocarcinoma in 3 patients. Recurrence was noted in 7 patients with submandibular gland malignancy and in 2 patients with pleomorphic adenoma. The 5-year disease-free survival rate was 63%. Tumors of the submandibular gland are infrequently malignant. Recurrent submandibular salivary gland pleomorphic adenoma is rare compared with recurrences in the parotid gland.

Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common tumor of the benign salivary gland neoplasms, the submandibular gland is the second most common site of PA after the parotid gland. Authors present 3 series case of pleomorphic adenoma in submandibular salivary gland in institution which were admitted in institution within a month interval. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of all 3 cases proved to be benign lesion arising from submandibular salivary gland. All 3 cases underwent excision in to and the postoperative period was uneventful. DT removed on 3rd POD and discharged in POD 10. Biopsy report proved to be pleomorphic adenoma in all cases. past studies showed pleomorphic adenoma most commonly occurs in the parotid gland and its occurrence in the submandibular salivary gland is uncommon. Also, age occurrence involves 30s-50s and is more common in females. But all this case was male and occurred in older age group. Early intervention with surgical excision in toto after definite confirmation with FNAC is the treatment of choice in preventing its malignant transformation.

The most common benign salivary gland tumor is the pleomorphic adenoma (PA). They can attain grotesque proportions and weigh several kilograms. They can cause facial disfigurement and, if untreated, could lead to airway compromise. Authors report a case of a large PA arising from the right submandibular salivary gland in a 48-year-old male. The lesion measured 9cmx8cmx5cm.
