OBJECTIVES: To analyze the expression and distribution pattern of extracellular matrix components in pleomorphic adenomas of the major and minor salivary glands and to compare the morphological findings of these tumors with the immunohistochemical expression, considering the different types of stroma predominating in each case. METHODS AND RESULTS: The expression of tenascin (TN) and fibronectin (FN) was analyzed in 23 cases of pleomorphic adenomas, 11 major and 12 minor salivary gland tumors, by the streptavidin-biotin method using anti-tenascin and anti-fibronectin antibodies. In addition, the immunohistochemical results were correlated with the morphological findings of the lesions. All cases analyzed were immunoreactive for the antibodies used. Fibronectin showed strong labeling in fibrous and chondroid stroma, while labeling was weak in hyaline and myxoid stroma. Tenascin expression was more intense in fibrous and chondroid stroma and moderate in hyaline and myxoid stroma. CONCLUSIONS: No difference in the expression of these proteins was observed between major and minor salivary gland tumors.

Malignant Salivary Gland Tumors

Background: Salivary gland tumors are rare, generally benign and affect both major and minor salivary glands.Objective: To find out the pattern of distribution of different benign and malignant salivary gland epithelial tumors and their relation to age and sex in a tertiary care center in Bangladesh.Methodology: This is a retrospective study. Details of epithelial salivary gland tumors were obtained from department of ENT, National institute of cancer & research hospital (NICRH), Dhaka, Bangladesh from the period January 2009 to December 2012 (3 years).Result: A total number of 261 cases presenting with both benign and malignant salivary gland tumors were analyzed according to gender, age and histopathological findings. There were 130 (49.84%) males and 131 (50.19%) females with the male female ration of 1: 0.99. Age of study population ranged from 10 to 70 years with the mean age 40.78. Percentage of benign salivary gland tumors was 73.94% and malignant salivary gland tumor 26.05%. Among major salivary gland tumors, no sublingual tumors were found and parotid gland tumors were the commonest. Whereas, among minor salivary gland tumors palatal minor salivary tumors were common.Conclusion: Parotid gland was the most common site of origin of both benign and malignant salivary gland tumors. Histopathologically, pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign salivary gland tumor and mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most frequent malignant neoplasm. Adenoid cystic carcinoma was common minor salivary gland tumor.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.15(1) 2016 p.90-94
