Abstract
Salivary gland tumours are a relatively rare and morphologically diverse group of lesions, thus are
highly prone to diagnostic confusion. Worldwide reports show difference in incidence, prevalence and
histological type of this tumours. Location, age and gender distribution of salivary gland tumours vary depending on race and
geographical conditions.
OBJECTIVE
1) To study the clinicopathological ndings in Salivary Gland Tumours
2) To study various surgical modalities of treatment undertaken for salivary gland tumours
RESULTS: Pleomorphic Adenoma (77.27%) was the most common benign tumour followed by warthins tumour (9.09%).
Mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most common malignant tumour in parotid gland. In our study Ultrasonography was
found to had Sensitivity of 52.63% and Specicity of 95.45% And Fine needle aspiration cytology had sensitivity of 78.95% and
specicity of 90.90% CONCLUSION: FNAC continues to be a reliable diagnostic technique in hands of an experienced
cytopathologist. Ultrasonography is a reliable radiological rst line investigations for salivary gland tumours.
