We analyzed retrospectively the 43 patients with salivary gland tumors who were treated surgically at Kang Nam General Hospital from 1985 through 1994.
@ES The following results were obtained:
@EN 1) The most frequent age incidence was 3rd and 5th decades. Patients with malignant tumor were older than with benign tumor.
2) Female was more prevalent and sex ratio of male to female was 1:1.5.
3) The most prevalent site was parotid gland and submandibular gland is second in order. The most prevalent site of minor salivary gland tumor was palate.
4) Minor salivary gland tumor has the highest malignant potential and next was parotid gland.
5) Slow-growing painless mass was the most common chief complaints.
6) Overall diagnostic accuracy of find-needle aspiration biopsy was 96.7%.
7) Histopathologically, the most common salivary gland tumor was pleomorphic adenoma. Among the benign tumors, the pleomorphic adenoma was most common and Warthin's tumor was the next. Among the malignant tumors, the adenoid cystic carcinoma was
most
common and mucoepidermoid carcinoma and malignant mixed tumor were the next.
8) Of the malignant salivary gland tumors, the incidence of cervical metastasis and distant metastasis were 55.5% and 11.2%.
9) Overall incidence of postoperative complication was 25.0% and the most common complication was transient facial nerve weakness. (Korean J Otolaryngol 38:12, 1995)
