SALIVARY GLAND TUMOR: CLINICAL ANALYSIS OF 2187 CASES
Objective To investigate the pathogenesis,pathological type and other clinical features of salivary gland tumors (SGTs).Methods Clinical data of patients with SGT underwent surgery in our hospital from January 1995 to Decem ber 2014-were collected.Their gender,age,pathological types,and benign and malignant composition ratio,etc.were analyzed.Results In the past 20 years,a total of 2187 patients with SGTs were treated.Ratio of male to female was 1 ∶ 1.01 (1089/1098).Age:10 to 93 years old.The median age was 55,and the most commonly seen age group was 50-59 (22.45%).The ratio of benign and malignant was 2.42 ∶ 1 (1548/639).The top three tumors-pleomorphic adenoma (45.50%),Warthin tumor (18.93%) and adenoid cystic carcinoma (7.86%)-accounted for 72.29% of all the patients.In patients of over 65 years old,Warthin tumor and pleomorphic adenoma were the top two,and in the malignancy,acinic cell carcinoma (7.61%) and adenoid cystic carcinoma (7.61%) were the most,the ratio of benign to malignant was 2.31 ∶ 1.Conclusion Surgical cases of salivary gland tumors increase year by year,and the proportion of male and female is equal.Among them,the most common type was pleomorphic adenoma,Warthin tumor and adenoid cystic carcinoma,benign tumors accounted for 70%.Warthin tumor was mostly seen in patients over 65,with a higher proportion of malignant.
