Objectives: To present a case of pleomorphic adenoma arising from heterotopic salivary gland tissue in a supraclavicular lymph node. Design: Case report Setting: Tertiary government hospital Patient:  One   Result: A 38-year-old female consulted with a six month history of an enlarging right supraclavicular mass. Fine needle aspiration biopsy was negative for malignant cells. No primary tumor could be demonstrated elsewhere. Excision biopsy was performed and final histopathology revealed pleomorphic adenoma surrounded by a normal lymph node. Atypical tumor cells and mitoses were not found. Conclusion: Criteria were met for diagnosing heterotopic salivary gland in a supraclavicular lymph node which subsequently developed into pleomorphic adenoma The rare location of the lesion as well as the unusual histopathological result of pleomorphic adenoma arising from a lymph node merited submission of this case report. Key words:  heteroplasia, heterotopic, cancer, metastasis, tumor

AbstrakLatar belakang: Pleomorfik adenoma parotis merupakan tumor jinak kelenjar liur yang paling sering ditemukan, namun pleomorfik adenoma parotis yang sangat besar sehingga melibatkan ruang parafaring (RPF) sangat jarang. Diagnosis ini sulit ditegakkan karena gejala klinisnya tidak khas. Penatalaksanaanya harus hati-hati mengingat banyak struktur vital yang beresiko mengalami trauma. Tujuan: Bagaimana menegakkan diagnosis dan penatalaksanaan pleomorfik adenoma parotis yang melibatkan RPF. Kasus: Seorang pasien perempuan 27 tahun ditegakkan diagnosis pleomorfik adenoma parotis kanan dengan melibatkan RPF. Terdapat pembengkakan pada leher yang bersifat asimtomatis dan gejala pendorongan faring dan laring yang menyebabkan disfonia, disfagia, dan defisit saraf kranial IX,X,XII. Penatalaksanaan: Pasien telah dilakukan operasi parotidektomi pendekatan transervikal–transparotid dengan preservasi arteri karotis eksterna dan saraf fasialis. Kesimpulan: Biopsi Aspirasi Jarum Halus (BAJAH) dan radiologi merupakan pemeriksaan yang penting untuk menegakkan diagnosis. Penatalaksanaan pleomorfik adenoma parotis yang melibatkan RPF adalah bedah ekstirpasi komplit dengan beberapa pendekatan. .Kata kunci: tumor jinak kelenjar liur, pleomorfik adenoma, ruang parafaringAbstractBackground: Parotid pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign salivary gland tumor, while giant parotid pleomorphic adenoma involving the parapharyngeal space (PPS) is rare. It was difficult to diagnose because the clinical presentation of this tumor can be subtle. The management must be performed carefully due to anatomy relation to complex vital structure lead to traumatic injury highrisk. Purposes: How to make diagnosis and management parotid pleomorphic adenoma involving PPS. Case: A female 27 years old with diagnosis was giant parotid pleomorphic adenoma involving PPS. There was asymptomatic swelling of the neck and presence of pushing the pharynx and larynx medially causes dysphonia, dysphagia, and IX,X,XII cranial nerves deficit. Management: The patient has been performed parotidectomy with transcervical-transparotid approaches by preservation of the external carotid artery and facial nerve. Conclusion: Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FNAB) and imaging are essential for diagnostic. The management of parotid pleomorphic adenoma involving PPS is surgical complete extirpation with various approaches.Keywords:benign salivary gland tumor, pleomorphic adenoma, parapharyngeal space

Parotid Swelling

Salivary duct carcinoma is a distinctive primary neoplasm of the major salivary gland characterized by aggressive behavior with early metastasis, local recurrence and significant mortality. We report a 40 year old male with parotid swelling diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma, who underwent parotidectomy with modified radical neck dissection and later, on routine histopathology, the swelling was reported as a salivary duct carcinoma, confirmed via immunohistochemistery. Given the relative low occurrence and known difficulty in making an accurate diagnosis using fine needle aspiration cytology, the possibility of salivary duct carcinoma in the appropriate clinical setting of elderly patients with parotid mass and facial palsy should be seriously considered.

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.

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. We report a case of a large PA arising from the left submandibular salivary gland in a 20-year-old black female. The lesion measured ∼16 × 15 ×12 cm.

<p>Pleomorphic Adenoma is a benign epithelial tumor arising from the salivary gland. It is a benign mixed tumor composed of epithelial and myoepithelial cells arranged with various morphological patterns, demarcated from surrounding tissues by fibrous capsule. In this article, we report an unusual case of 30 year, male with a single, nodular swelling evident in the upper lip which was discovered during a routine dental procedure. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) was planned for the patient, where a of cytological diagnosis of Pleomorphic Adenoma was rendered, which was confirmed by biopsy. Hence, this highlights, FNAC makes up an important diagnosing tool as the first line of investigation to distinguish between benign and malignant salivary gland neoplasms.</p>
