“…Lymphoma of the salivary gland accounts for 5% of cases of extranodal lymphoma [3]. Primary lymphoma in the salivary gland is a rare entity comprising only 1.7% to 3.1% of all salivary neoplasms [4] but most commonly are found in parotid gland (80%) and in submandibular gland (20%).…”

“…7 Lymphoid infiltrates of the salivary glands are common to a variety of pathologic conditions including autoimmune disorders, malignant lymphomas, and immunoregulatory responses to parenchymal neoplasms. In the most recent classification scheme of nonYHodgkin lymphomas, these neoplasms fall within the spectrum of low-grade B-cell lymphoma of MALT.…”

“…1,5,6 NonYHodgkin lymphoma affecting the salivary glands is uncommon, although synchronous lymphomas involving 2 different salivary glands are extremely rare and have not been reported previously. 7 We report the first case of 2 synchronous-type mucosaassociated lymphoid tissue (MALT) tumors in the ipsilateral parotid and submandibular glands of a 59-year-old woman.…”

The incidence of lymphomas in salivary glands is 5%, and it represents 10% of malignant salivary tumors. Synchronous tumors arising in different major salivary glands are not only very infrequent but also extremely rare; on the other hand, synchronous lymphomas in ipsilateral major salivary glands have not been reported previously. This article reports a case of synchronous lymphomas in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue in the ipsilateral parotid and submandibular glands. Parotidectomy with facial nerve conservation and resection of the submandibular gland by video-assisted surgery using only a Blair-modified classic incision was performed. One year after the surgical procedure, the patient was followed up at regular intervals, and residual mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma did not appear. This case illustrates the importance of the diagnostic possibility of synchronous primary tumors after identification of a simple one; this also reports the video-assisted resection of the submandibular gland using only a Blair incision, when a parotidectomy must be also made.

“…To the best of our knowledge, only 17 such cases have been reported (Table 1). [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] The age range of patients is from 24 to 79 years old (mean, 58.9 years old), most cases are from East Asia and male. The parotid gland is the most common site of such lesions and the submandibular gland the second most common site.…”

T/NK-cell lymphoma of the salivary gland is rare. A 58-year-old man complained of a tumor mass in the left parotid gland region and he was diagnosed to have a left parotid tumor. The tumor was subsequently resected, revealing a diffuse growth pattern of medium to large sized atypical cells. The tumor was surrounded by fibrous connective tissue in the form of a capsule, and those were positive for CD3, CD4, CD5 and CD30, but negative for Bcl2, CD8, CD10, CD15, CD20, CD25, CD56, CD79a, CD246, EMA, granzyme B, TdT and TIA-1. There was no molecular evidence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. It was diagnosed as peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) arising from an intraglandular lymph node in the parotid gland. In conclusion, Only 17 cases of primary T/NK-cell lymphoma of the salivary glands have been recorded until now, and the characteristics of these are not clear yet. Additional study is needed.
