Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pathology
  • Head and Neck Surgery

Background:

  • Salivary duct carcinoma is a rare malignancy.
  • It predominantly affects elderly men, often in the parotid gland.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present clinicopathologic features of 11 salivary duct carcinoma cases.
  • To describe this tumor's occurrence in the minor salivary glands of the maxilla, a site not previously documented.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 11 salivary duct carcinoma cases.
  • Review of clinicopathologic data and histological findings.
  • Literature review for comparison.

Main Results:

  • 11 cases occurred in older men (mean age 56), located in parotid (7), submandibular (2), and maxillary minor salivary glands (2).

  • Tumor size ranged from 3-9 cm; all showed infiltrating margins and a desmoplastic stroma.
  • Perineural invasion (7 cases) and lymph node metastasis (3 cases) were observed. Radical surgery and radiotherapy were common treatments.

    • Conclusions:

    • Salivary duct carcinoma is an aggressive tumor with distinct histology.
    • This study documents salivary duct carcinoma in the maxillary minor salivary glands for the first time.
    • Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing this aggressive malignancy.
