SummaryAt operation for metastasizing carcinoma of the piriform sinus a patient was found to have two separate parotid tumors, one a pleomorphic adenoma and the other a papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum (Warthin's tumor). These tumors presented as palpable masses on the same side as a lymph node involved with carcinoma. Synchronous parotid tumors of different types are rare; previous reports in the literature show that this combination of pleomorphic adenoma and Warthin's tumor is the most common. We have found no previous report of multiple parotid neoplasms in a patient with coexistent squamous carcinoma of the head and neck.

ntroduction: Salivary tumors represent a heterogeneous group of tumors of diverse location, histological structure and bio logical behavior. The purpose of this study was a retrospective evaluation of surgical treatment of a group of patients with newly dia gnosed benign tumors of the parotid salivary gland operated in the years 2014–2018 at the ENT department of Hospital České Budějovice, a.s. Material and methods: A type of surgery, defi nitive histology, postoperative complications and a number of recurrences were monitored. The data were evaluated by descriptive statistical methods. Results: A total of 190 surgeries with benign histological fi ndings in 182 patients were performed. The most common benign result was Warthin‘s tumor (90 cases, 47.4%), followed by pleomorphic adenoma (66 cases, 34.7%). Uncommon histological types of tumors were dia gnosed in 14 patients (7.4%). Non-tumorous fi ndings were found in 20 cases (10.5%). The most frequently performed procedure in 84 cases (44.2%) was extracapsular extirpation. Transient lesion in the area of innervation of the temporofacial and / or cervicofacial branch of the facial nerve was present in 34 (17.9%) patients. Permanent paresis of some of the branches of the facial nerve was reported in 2 (1.1%) patients. In 12 patients, the postoperative course was complicated by the development of salivary fi stula (6.3%). Pleomorphic adenoma relapsed after extracapsular extirpation in 5 cases (20.0%). After partial parotidectomy, one recurrence of pleomorphic adenoma (3.6%) was recorded. Warthin‘s tumor relapsed after simple extirpation in 4 cases (20.0%). Conclusion: Our evaluation results of the surgical treatment of benign parotid gland tumors lead us to make further eff orts improve the care of our patients. We see reserves mainly in the routine use of ultrasonographic examination with performance FNAC and thus planning a safe and suffi ciently radical operational solution.

Delayed Hypersensitivity Reaction

Papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum, or Warthin's tumor, is a benign lesion of the salivary glands occurring most frequently in the parotid region. Since the initial report of this lesion in 1910, numerous reports have appeared in the literature concerning the occurrence of Warthin's tumor in many extraparotid locations, including the larynx. The vast majority of those tumors arising in the larynx have been disproved because of the absence of one or more of the histologic characteristics of this lesion within the surgical specimen. This paper will review the histologic criteria of Warthin's tumor and the typical clinical occurrence. We will discuss a case of papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum of the larynx that satisfies all the histologic criteria of this lesion. A review of the possible origins of this tumor will demonstrate that this case may lend support to the hypothesis that papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum may be the end result of a delayed hypersensitivity reaction.

The aim of this work is to establish a local excision procedure (LEP) and indications of this procedure for Warthin's tumor. Seventy-three patients (82 sides) with Warthin's tumor were studied. Point I was located 1 cm from the intertragal notch in the direction indicated by the notch. Point S was located 5 mm superior to the inferior end of the mandibular angle. The trunk of the facial nerve and the marginal mandibular branch run at the points I and S, respectively. In surgical maneuvers below the I-S line, the marginal mandibular and colli branches may exist within the surgical field, but the trunk and other peripheral branches of the facial nerve will not be encountered. For Warthin's tumor estimated to be below the I-S line (Group A), LEP was used, involving resection of the tumor after locating and dissecting the marginal mandibular and colli branches. For tumors not meeting these criteria (Group B), partial superficial parotidectomy was performed. Results indicated that mean volume of hemorrhage was significantly smaller, and that mean operation time was significantly shorter in Group A than in Group B. Conversely, no significant difference in tumor size or incidence of postoperative facial paresis was identified between the 2 groups. Recurrence has not yet been noted in either group. In conclusion, LEP is useful for Warthin's tumor below the I-S line. This procedure seems applicable not only to Warthin's tumors, but also to other benign parotid tumors in the surgical field below the I-S line, such as pleomorphic adenoma and lymphoepithelial cyst.
