ABSTRACT
Background:
Lymphomas affecting the submandibular glands are very uncommon and few reports are currentlyavailable in the literature. Therefore, the aim of the current study is to describe the clinical and microscopic fea-tures of an original series of lymphomas affecting the submandibular glands.Material andMethods:
The pathology files of two institutions were searched for lymphoma cases affecting thesubmandibular glands. The original hematoxylin and eosin, and immunohistochemical slides were revised by apathologist for diagnosis confirmation following the revised 4th edition of the World Health Organization classification of tumours of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissues. Clinical data regarding age, sex, clinical manifestation,treatment, follow-up and status at last appointment were retrieved from the patients medical charts.Results:
During the period investigated, 16 cases were included in the study. Females predominated (106) with amean age of 57.8 years-old. Tumors usually presented as asymptomatic swellings. MALT lymphoma representedthe most common subtype, followed by diffuse large B cell lymphoma and follicular lymphoma. Three patientsdied, one of them affected by plasmablastic lymphoma, one by DLBCL and one by MALT lymphoma.Conclusions:
Low-grade B cell lymphomas predominate in the submandibular glands, but DLBCL and other sub-types may also be rarely diagnosed in this salivary gland.(AU)
