What tests can be used for diagnosis of parotid malignancies?

CT or MRI Fine needle aspirate

Describe the gross appearance of acinic cell carcinoma

Gross appearance demonstrates a mass that is well circumscribed but lacks a true capsule.

What are the gross pathology findings of oncocytoma?

Gross pathology findings include a homogenous tumor with a smooth surface that may be divided into lobules by fibrous tissue septae.

What is shown in the following?

High grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma

Describe the cells in high-grade mucoepidermoid carcinomas

High-grade carcinomas are hypercellular, solid tumors with noticeable cellular atypia and frequent mitotic figures LESS MUCIN MORE EPITHELIAL TISSUE. These tumors will often be mistaken for a squamous cell carcinoma and the differentiation between the two can be quite difficult. Positive immunohistochemical staining for mucin indicates a high-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma rather than a squamous cell carcinoma.

How will pleomorphic adenoma appear microscopically?

Microscopically, these tumors are composed of varying proportions of gland-like epithelium and mesenchymal stroma. The stroma is just as variable and may be myxoid, chondroid, fibroid or osteoid. The incomplete encapsulation and transcapsular growth of tumor pseudopods characteristic of pleomorphic adenoma are demonstrated

What is shown in the following?

Oncocytoma: Uniform plump oncocytes with granular eosinophilic cytoplasm arranged in glandular pattern.

Stage I and II disease can often be treated by surgical excision alone—parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation Stage III and IV disease often require more radical excision and may warrant additional intervention such as a neck dissection or postoperative radiation therapy

What do the divisions of the parotid compartment contain?

Superior - Zygoma Posterior - EAC Inferior - Styloid, ICA, Jugular Veins

What symptoms will increase suspicion of a high grade tumor?

Symptoms such as pain, fixation to the surrounding tissues or skin or facial paralysis are uncommon and should increase suspicion for a high-grade tumor.

Describe the cut surface of acinic cell carcinoma

The cut surface is grayish, friable, and displays solid and cystic areas.

What causes the granularity of the cytoplasm in oncocytoma, and what stains use this feature?

The granularity of the cytoplasm is due to the presence of large numbers of mitochondria that may constitute up to 60% of the cell volume. Special staining procedures such as the phosphotungstic acid hematoxylin stain, Bensley's aniline-acid fuchsin or Luxol-fast-blue reaction take advantage of this unique characteristic and can help to make the diagnosis of oncocytoma, as can electron microscopy.

Describe the gross pathologic appearance of pleomorphic adenoma

The gross pathologic appearance of a pleomorphic adenoma is a smooth or lobulated, well-encapsulated tumor that is clearly demarcated from the surrounding normal salivary gland. Typically solid tumors and may have areas of gelationous myxoid stroma.

What are the hypotheses of tumorigenesis of salivary gland neoplasms?

These hypotheses, the bicellular and multicellular theories, propose that certain cells that make up the salivary gland unit are responsible not only for normal gland cell turnover and maintenance, but also for the development of different salivary gland tumors.

What is the bicellular theory?

This hypothesis states that neoplastic development within salivary glands originates from the basal cells seen in the excretory and intercalated ducts.
