Incidence of Carcinoma of the Major Salivary Glands According to the WHO Classification, 1992 to 2006: A Population-Based Study in the United States

Abstract: Background: Carcinomas of the major salivary glands (M-SGC) comprise a morphologically diverse group of rare tumors of largely unknown cause. To gain insight into etiology, we evaluated incidence of M-SGC using the WHO classification schema (WHO-2005

“…Comparisons of different populations and clinical series are limited by the use of different inclusion criteria (e.g., benign and malignant tumors, involvement of major or minor salivary glands, histological variants) (24). All this makes it difficult to establish comparisons among studies .001*** Perineural invasion 0.002** *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001 and draw conclusions regarding the incidence of MSGTs in a given population.…”

“…Nije u potpunosti jasno koji etiološki faktori dovode do nastanka ove grupe tumora. U literaturi se dovode u vezu sa izlaganjem ultravioletnom i jonizujućem zračenju, upotrebom duvana i alkohola ili virusnom infekcijom [4,5,6]. Velike pljuvačne žlezde su parotidna, submandibularna i sublingvalna, a male su prisutne na usnama, gingivi, obrazu, palatumu, jeziku, orofarniksu, zatim u paranazalnim šupljinama i parafaringelanom prostoru.…”

“…Da su ovi tumori retki može se uočiti i u radovima iz drugih zemalja. Prema podacima iz literature, tumori pljuvačnih žlezda (benigni i maligni) čine od 2 do 5% svih registrovanih tumora glave i vrata [8] odnosno do 11% svih oro-faringealnih malignih tumora u SAD-u [5]. U našoj studiji polna distribucija pacijenata sa MTVPŽ je pokazala blagu dominaciju javljanja tumora kod muškog pola u odnosu na ženski i to naročito u 6. i 7. dekadi života.…”
