“…This finding is similar to the results of a tumor incidence study covering a period of 14 years and involving 6,391 malignant tumors: squamous cell carcinoma was the most common histological type (24). A retrospective Spanish study of 24 patients likewise found that squamous cell carcinoma was the most frequent histological type (36). In our series the second most common malignancy was acinar cell carcinoma (17.4%), followed by mucoepidermoid carcinoma (13%), cystic adenoid carcinoma (8.7%), and adenocarcinoma not otherwise specified (NOS) (8.7%).…”

The aims of this study were to determine the incidence of malignant salivary gland tumors (MSGTs) in a specific in Spanish Mediterranean population, evaluate oncological outcomes, and identify prognostic factors for survival. Overall survival and disease-free survival rates were calculated for 23 patients with MSGTs who were treated in our department during 2004-2012. In the recruitment population of the reference hospital, annual incidence per 100,000 inhabitants was estimated, with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The mean annual incidence of MSGTs was 0.91 new cases per 100,000 inhabitants (95% CI, 0.14-2.83). The most common histological type was squamous cell carcinoma (34.8%). Overall survival ranged from 2 to 120 months (mean 70.5 months). The 5-year overall survival rate was 52.5%, and the 5-year disease-free survival rate was 50%. The mean disease-free interval was 73.9 months (95% CI 47.1-100.

“…3 The most common location of neural tumors in the oral cavity is the tongue and, thereafter, the sites in order of frequency are the buccal mucosa, the floor of the mouth, palate, lips and gingiva. 4 There are three cases of solitary neurofibroma of soft palate reported in literature to our knowledge. This is the fourth case of solitary neurofibroma not associated with neurofibromatosis.…”

“…Benign tumors are far more common[ 2 ] whereas malignant tumors represent just 1-3% of all head and neck carcinomas[ 3 ] and are more frequently located in the parotid gland. [ 4 ] The median age of occurrence for malignant tumors is significantly higher than for benign tumors,[ 5 ] with the most common types being adenoid cystic carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma. [ 2 ] In our series, all the patients presented advanced stage high-grade tumors.…”

Introduction:To describe the oncological management and functional outcome of patients with advanced parotid malignant tumors undergoing facial nerve reconstruction after radical parotidectomy and subtotal petrosectomy.Materials and Methods:A combined approach was used to treat advanced stage parotid malignancies with intrapetrous involvement of the facial nerve main trunk or abutment on the stylomastoid foramen. Patients underwent facial nerve rehabilitation with cable graft reconstruction or with static techniques.Results:Six patients were included. All patients had Stage IV disease and underwent surgical treatment using a combined approach. Three patients underwent facial-nerve cable graft technique and three patients underwent static techniques to rehabilitate facial nerve function. Five patients received adjuvant treatment with radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. The mean follow-up was 27.5 months, with a minimum of 7 months and a maximum of 8 years. Four patients remain disease-free, with an overall survival rate of 66%. Among the patients undergoing dynamic reconstruction, first signs of recovery were established at 6 months of follow-up. All patients achieved a House-Brackmann score of III-IV within the first two postoperative years.Conclusions:When possible, facial nerve grafting is the preferred method of facial nerve rehabilitation in an advanced stage parotid tumors. A multidisciplinary approach allows better functional and oncological outcomes.
