“…Recently periductal fibrosis was suggested as a particular histological image of sialolipomas from MiSG [19]. All the cases included in the present report were histological characterized by neoplastic mature adipocytes interlaced with non-neoplastic salivary gland tissue.…”

“…The Table 2 shows the histological differential parameters of sialolipoma and other lipomatous lesions from salivary glands. Recently, it has been suggested demographical differences between patients suffering sialolipomas affecting the MaSG and MiSG [19]. To confirm or reject this suggestion we analyzed the reported cases of sialolipoma in the scientific literature, including the 5 cases of the present report.…”

“…However, form the 5 cases describes here 3 were from females, even more, the analyses of scientific literature showed a female predilection (p \ 0.05) of MiSG sialolipoma with a ratio f:m of 1.8:1. Okada et al [19] also suggested that sialolipomas from MiSG had an average of size of 17 mm (greatest dimension). The average greatest dimension from our 5 cases was 16 mm.…”

It has been suggested that MiSG sialolipomas showed male predilection and an average age of 64 years [19].

“…To date and in our knowledge 58 cases (including the present cases) have been reported in scientific literature . Recently, it has been propose some clinical and histopahological differences between sialolipomas affecting the major salivary glands (MaSG) and minor salivary glands (MiSG) [19]. With the aim of better understanding of this neoplasm we present 5 new cases of sialolipoma from MiSG and additionally we analyzed the scientific literature to establish if demographical differences exist between patients suffering sialolipoma affecting the minor and MaSG.…”

Sialolipoma is rare benign neoplasm arise from salivary glands (majors and minors) characterized by neoplastic adipose tissue with scattered non-neoplastic salivary gland acinus. To date 60 cases (including 5 cases reported in the present paper) have been reported in scientific literature. This article presents 5 new cases of sialolipoma affecting minor salivary glands (MiSG) and additionally reviews and analyzes the previously published cases to assess possible demographical differences between sialolipoma from minor and from major salivary glands. Case reports: 5 cases (3 females; 2 males; age means 63.8 years), of sialolipoma from MiSG, are reported. 2 of them were located in buccal mucosa, 1 in upper lip mucosa, 1 in floor of the mouth and 1 in retromolar area. All tumors were composed by neoplastic adipocytes cells interlaced with normal salivary gland acinus cover it by a fibrous tissue capsule. Analyzes of literature showed that MiSG sialolipoma is most frequent in females over 60 years old, therefore and in conclusion this article assess different demographical profile of sialolipoma in respect to their topography.

Sialolipoma is a relatively new and rare variant of lipoma of the salivary glands characterized by the combination of classical lipoma morphology with non-neoplastic ductulo-acinary salivary tissue components. Including the presented case, 27 sialolipomas, 14 of them localized in the parotid gland, have been published. We describe the clinical, radiological and pathomorphological characteristics of a parotid sialolipoma in a 43-year-old man.
