“…SDCs account for 10% of all cysts in the salivary glands and occur frequently in individuals between the ages of 30 and 40, with no gender preference 32,33 . They are unilateral, painless, compressible growths ranging in size from 0.8 to 10 cm (predominantly 1–3 cm) 34 . Common sites of SDC are the minor oral salivary glands, with a predilection for the superficial lobe of the parotid gland 35 .…”

Cystic lesions of the salivary glands are very uncommon entities. However, on occasion, some neoplasms of the salivary glands show a cystic component, which may be predominant or only partially cystic. Basal cell adenoma, canalicular adenoma, oncocytoma, sebaceous adenoma, intraductal papilloma, epithelial‐myoepithelial carcinoma, intraductal carcinoma, and secretory carcinoma are such cystic entities. Cystic degeneration and necrosis, which can develop within solid tumours, represent another possibility. The ability to recognise this type of lesion is a challenge in diagnostic cytology because hypocellular fluid is frequently recovered. Furthermore, evaluating all of the differential diagnoses for cystic lesions of the salivary glands is helpful in obtaining the correct diagnosis. Herein, we evaluate the various types of cystic lesions within the salivary glands.
