Objective To analyze the correlation between the ELL2 gene 1119 T>C polymorphism and the susceptibility to pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary gland.Methods The pedigree of the pleomorphic adenoma family of salivary gland was drawn.The exons of ELL2 gene in 5 members of salivary pleomorphic adenoma family were sequenced.A case-control study was conducted.One hundred and twelve patients with pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary gland who visited the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Shanxi Bethune Hospital from January 2016 to July 2020 were taken as case group,and 176 healthy examinees from January 2019 to January 2020 were taken as control group with age and sex as matching conditions.The 1119 T>C polymorphism of ELL2 genes in the two groups were detected with high resolution melting(HRM)curve.Chi-square test was adopted to analyze the correlation between gene polymorphism and the occurrence of pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary gland,stratified analysis was performed to evaluate the synergistic effect of smoking and genotype,and real time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)was used to detect the expression level of ELL2 in individuals with different genotypes.Results The 1119 T>C polymorphism site existed in the exon 8 of ELL2 gene in a family with pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland.The results of case-control study showed that the genotype frequency of homozygous CC was significantly higher in patients with pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland than that in the controls(24.1%vs.11.9%,P=0.002).Homozygous CC was associated with increased risk for developing pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland(OR=3.059,95%CI 1.494-6.263)in this cohort.Stratification analysis showed that smoking and 1119C allele cooperated to increase the risk of pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland(OR=3.200,95%CI 1.460-7.014).The expression level of ELL2 mRNA in CC genotype was significantly higher than that in individuals with CT or TT genotype(P<0.05).Conclusion The genetic variation of ELL2 may play an important role in the occurrence of pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland,and smoking combined with the 1119C allele increased the risk of this disease.
Résumé
Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common salivary gland tumor accounting for 80% of all major salivary gland tumors. It is a benign salivary gland neoplasm that constitutes 3% to 10% of the neoplasms in the head and neck region.1 Salivary gland neoplasms represents less than 1% of all tumors. This article is being showcased as a special case due to the fact it was done at a Taluk Hospital and also because ENT and oromaxillofacial surgeons were involved during the surgery.
Résumé
Introduction: Pleomorphic adenoma, the most common benign mixed salivary gland tumor which accounts for 70-80%, is a biphasic tumor with dual origin from epithelial and myoepithelial elements. It shows a malignant transformation rate of 6%. Microscopically, pleomorphic adenoma characteristically displays vast morphologic diversity. This present study is done to analyze prevalence rates and histomorphological variations to better elucidate the pattern of occurrence, diagnosis and treat- ment plan of pleomorphic adenoma. Materials and Methods: This are a retrospective study which was conducted in a private institution, Chennai. Based on the proportion of parenchymal and stromal tumor components, the cases were classified into four subtypes as proposed by Foote and Frazell. Morphological patterns, cellular patterns, capsular alterations and Stromal components were analyzed and statisti- cally evaluated. Results: Our analysis showed an overall 0.87% of pleomorphic adenoma cases being reported were associated with minor salivary glands followed buccal mucosa and palate. All the reported cases showed Type II pattern with histological cellular pat- tern of spindle cells and ductal morphological pattern. Conclusion: We observed the great diversity of morphological aspects of the stroma in pleomorphic adenoma, in which many cases showed variation in morphology and cellularity associated with tumor location.

Objective:To compare the therapeutic effects of ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and surgical resection on salivary gland mixed tumor with diameter ≤3 cm, and to analyze the feasibility and clinical value of RFA in the treatment of salivary gland mixed tumor.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 43 patients with salivary gland mixed tumor whose diameter ≤3 cm were treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March 2020 to March 2022.According to the treatment method, they were divided into an ablation group of 20 cases and a resection group of 23 cases. The complete ablation rate of the ablation group was evaluated, the postoperative absorption of ablation foci in the ablation group was recorded, and the perioperative indexes and the incidence of postoperative complications of the two groups were compared. The long-term prognosis of the two groups was followed up, and the incidence of recurrence, malignant metastasis and appearance recovery were evaluated.Results:In the ablation group, the complete ablation rate was 100.00% (20/20). The lesion volume reduction rates at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after operation were -(39.60±16.18)%, (8.61±8.10)%, (31.87±14.68)% and (58.64±14.82)%, respectively. The operation time, recovery feeding time, postoperative hospital stay and intraoperative bleeding in the ablation group were less than those in the resection group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Postoperative complications occurred in 2 cases in the ablation group and 9 cases in the resection group. There was significant difference in the total incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(χ 2=4.768, P=0.029). There was 1 case of recurrence in the ablation group, and no facial depression or protuberance occurred 1 year after operation. There was no recurrence in the resection group, one year after operation, the incidence of facial depression and facial protuberance was 13.04%(3/23) and 0, respectively.There was no malignant metastasis in both groups. Conclusions:Ultrasound-guided RFA is safe and effective in the treatment of mixed tumors of salivary gland with diameter ≤3 cm, and the therapeutic effect is not significantly different from that of surgery. With minimal trauma and good cosmetic effect, it has a great application prospect.

OBJECTIVES@#This study aims to investigate the effects of tumor-stromal fibroblasts (TSFs) on the proliferation, invasion, and migration of salivary gland pleomorphic adenoma (SPA) cells in vitro.@*METHODS@#Salivary gland pleomorphic adenoma cells (SPACs), TSFs, and peri-tumorous normal fibroblasts (NFs) were obtained by tissue primary culture and identified by immunocytochemical staining. The conditioned medium was obtained from TSF and NF in logarithmic phase. SPACs were cultured by conditioned medium and treated by TSF (group TSF-SPAC) and NF (group NF-SPAC). SPACs were used as the control group. The proliferation, invasion, and migration of the three groups of cells were detected by MTT, transwell, and scratch assays, respectively. The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the three groups was tested by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).@*RESULTS@#Immunocytochemical staining showed positive vimentin expression in NF and TSF. Results also indicated the weak positive expression of α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) and fibroblast activation protein (FAP) in TSFs and the negative expression of α-SMA and FAP in NFs. MTT assay showed that cell proliferation in the TSF-SPAC group was significantly different from that in the NF-SPAC and SPAC groups (P<0.05). Cell proliferation was not different between the NF-SPAC and SPAC groups (P>0.05). Transwell and scratch assays showed no difference in cell invasion and migration among the groups (P>0.05). ELISA showed that no significant difference in VEGF expression among the three groups (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#TSFs may be involved in SPA biological behavior by promoting the proliferation of SPACs but has no effect on the invasion and migration of SPACs in vitro. Hence, TSF may be a new therapeutic target in SPA treatment.

Parapharyngeal space(PPS) tumors are very uncommon. Though majority of these tumors are of benign origin, the most common among them is a pleomorphic adenoma. Surgical removal is mainstay for the treatment of these tumors for which a strategic preoperative evaluation of each patient and knowledge of different surgical approaches to PPS are essential. Here we report a rare but typical case of a 35 years old female presented to OPD with a mass in right the parapharyngeal space. The mass was excised successfully using mandibular swing approach and the post operative histopathology report suggested it to be “pleomorphic adenoma”
Résumé
Introduction: Salivary gland tumors (SGTs) are relatively uncommon and show a wide variety of morphological heterogeneities. The incidence of SGTs is said to be affected by geographical and racial factors. Histopathological diagnosis plays a major role in the diagnosis of these neoplasms. Objectives: This study investigated the incidence of SGTs and histopathological features of various SGTs, aimed at knowing the epidemiological pattern of these tumors and comparing the results of our study with other studies of SGTs in the literature. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on SGTs at the Pathology Department of the Government Medical College and Hospital for a period of 5 years. Clinical and demographic data were documented and analyzed concerning histopathologic type. Results: A total of 86 SGTs were identified, 65.12% of which were classified as benign and 34.88% as malignant. Most tumors occurred in the parotid gland (59.14%). Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) was the most common tumor (56.98%), followed by mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) (17.44%). The tumors occurred more often in men (51.16%) than in women (48.84%). Conclusion: SGTs exhibit broad morphological heterogeneity and these tumors are rare. The parotid gland is the most common location, and PA is the most frequent benign tumor. MEC followed by adenoid cystic carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the salivary gland.

Introduction: Salivary gland tumors account for about 3% of head and neck tumors and the majority are benign in nature. Among these, the most common pathological type is pleomorphic adenoma also called the mixed tumor. It is a kind of tumor containing glandular tissue, myxoid and cartilage-like tissue. As the structure of the tissue is diverse, it is called a “mixed tumor.” Actinomycosis is a chronic suppurative bacterial infection caused by Actinomyces israelii. In this case report, we are presenting a rare co-existence of pleomorphic adenoma and Actinomycosis in the infratemporal fossa. Case description: A 40-year-old female patient complains of pain over the upper left back tooth region for the past 6months. The patient had a past history of a small lesion in 28 region which resulted in constant irritation. The patient had consulted the dentist for the same and underwent extraction of 28 and 38 three years back, which was thought to be the cause of the swell- ing. Conclusion: The case highlights the importance of proper history taking, clinical examination, and histopathological examina- tion in arriving at a precise diagnosis of a lesion irrespective of size and clinical presentation.

RESUMEN Introducción: El adenoma pleomorfo es la neoplasia benigna más frecuente en las glándulas salivales, su localización en vías aéreas superiores es poco frecuente. Objetivo: Describir la inusual presentación de un adenoma pleomorfo congénito nasal, no descrito con anterioridad en Cuba. Presentación del caso: se presenta un caso raro de recién nacido con datos clínicos de obstrucción nasal horas después de su nacimiento. Previos estudios y resultado de biopsia del tumor intranasal determinaron adenoma pleomorfo congénito. Se realizó exéresis de tumor por cirugía endoscópica nasal. Conclusiones: El adenoma pleomorfo debe ser considerado un diagnóstico diferencial en todas las edades; sospechar ante un paciente con síntomas de obstrucción unilateral o epistaxis. Un diagnóstico temprano permite un tratamiento oportuno con abordaje quirúrgico endoscópico menos invasivo y una menor tasa de recidiva. Este tumor se destaca por su potencial recurrencia o transformación maligna por lo que es importante mantener vigilancia endoscópica e imagenológica.
ABSTRACT Introduction: Pleomorphic adenoma is the most frequent benign neoplasm in the salivary glands; its location in the upper airways is rare. Objective: Describe the unusual presentation of a nasal congenital pleomorphic adenoma, not previously described in Cuba. Case Presentation: A rare case of a newborn with clinical data of nasal obstruction hours after birth is presented. Previous studies and biopsy result of the intranasal tumor determined congenital pleomorphic adenoma. Tumor excision was performed by endoscopic nasal surgery. Conclusions: Pleomorphic adenoma should be considered a differential diagnosis at all ages. Suspecting should be normal when a patient has symptoms of unilateral obstruction or epistaxis. Early diagnosis allows timely treatment with a less invasive endoscopic surgical approach and a lower rate of recurrence. This tumor stands out for its potential recurrence or malignant transformation, so it is important to maintain endoscopic and imaging surveillance.

Resumen El adenoma pleomorfo de tráquea es un tumor benigno, infrecuente, que genera cuadros obstructivos, pudiendo confundirse con asma, lo que retrasa su diagnóstico. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 40 años con antecedentes de asma y episodios de obstrucción respiratoria de 8 meses de evolución. La fibrobroncoscopía mostró una lesión polipoide, pediculada, en el primer anillo traqueal, con oclusión de 80% de la luz, que se resecó. El diagnóstico histopatológico fue adenoma pleomorfo con lipometaplasia. El tratamiento de estos tumores consiste en la resección completa de la lesión y seguimiento a largo plazo por la baja proba bilidad de recurrencia, malignización y metástasis.
Abstract Pleomorphic adenoma of the trachea is a benign tumor, extremely rare, that generates obstructive symp toms and sometimes is confused with asthma, which delays its diagnosis. We present the case of a 40-year-old woman with history of asthma and airway obstruction, of 8-months duration. Fibrobronchoscopy showed polypoid, pedunculated lesion in first tracheal ring which occluded 80% of the lumen, that was resected. The histopatho logical diagnosis was pleomorphic adenoma with lipometaplasia. Treatment of these tumors consists in complete resection of the lesion and long-term follow-up due to low probability of recurrence, malignancy and metastasis.

Objective To investigate the effect of short hairpin RNA(shRNA)-mediated pleomorphic adenoma gene like-2 (PALAG2) silencing on the malignant behavior of hepatocellular carcinoma cells and its mechanism. Methods Real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the expression level of PLAGL2 in liver cancer tissues and adjacent tissues. Hepatoma cells MHCC97-L were cultured in vitro, the lentiviral vector plasmid PLAGL2-shRNA and control NC-shRNA were constructed, transfected into MHCC97-L cells, and stable transfected strains were selected with puromycin. CCK-8 and Transwell chamber assay detected the proliferation activity and the number of migration and invasion of MHCC97-L cells after silencing PLAGL2. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of p-PI3K and p-Akt proteins. The PI3K/ Akt signaling pathway activator was used to treat MHCC97-L cells to detect cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Results The expression of PLAGL2 was significantly increased in liver cancer tissue (P < 0. 05). Transfection of 9 strains of MHCC97-L cells with PLAGL2-shRNA could significantly reduce the expression level of PLAGL2, and the ability of proliferation, migration, and invasion of MHCC97-L cells was also weakened (P<0. 05), and the expression levels of p-PI3K, and p-Akt were inhibited (P<0. 05), PI3K/ Akt activator could obviously reverse the above phenomenon. Conclusion shRNA lentiviral vector pathway can effectively silence the expression of PLAGL2 gene in hepatocarcinoma cells. Silencing of PLAGL2 can significantly inhibit the malignant behavior of proliferation, migration and invasion of hepatocarcinoma cells, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of PI3K / Akt signaling pathway activation.
Résumé
As neoplasias de glândulas salivares apresentam comportamentos diferenciados, que não seguem os padrões clássicos das neoplasias benignas e malignas. A raridade de algumas destas lesões dificulta ainda mais o entendimento dos mecanismos envolvidos na etiopatogenia. Marcadores moleculares como a proteína EZH2 têm sido utilizados na investigação de alterações epigenéticas em diferentes neoplasias, auxiliando na definição do diagnóstico e prognóstico das lesões. O objetivo do presente trabalho é avaliar a expressão da proteína EZH2 e descrever as características clínicas e microscópicas de amostras de carcinoma adenoide cístico (CAC) e adenoma pleomórfico (AP) com ênfase na importância da definição da malignidade da lesão. A análise dos cortes microscópicos corados em Hematoxilina e Eosina dos casos de Adenoma pleomórfico mostraram células epiteliais e mioepiteliais glandulares dispostas em lençóis e estruturas ductiformes em meio a estroma variável. Os casos de Carcinoma adenoide cístico mostraram três padrões distintos de crescimento incluindo formações tubulares, cribriformes e sólidas. Todos os casos de AP e CAC foram positivos para reação imuno-histoquímica para EZH2. As amostras de CAC apresentaram expressão de EZH2 significativamente maior comparado ao AP. As covariáveis metástase em linfonodos, recorrência, padrão histológico, presença de áreas sólidas e invasão perineural foram descritas em relação à marcação de EZH2 em amostras de CAC. Dessa forma, os resultados do estudo melhoram o entendimento das características clínicas e histológicas do CAC, assim como sobre o comportamento das lesões. Além disso, a análise mostra que o EZH2 é um potencial marcador de malignidade e ressalta a importância da validação de marcadores moleculares de alterações epigenéticas.
Salivary gland neoplasms present different behaviors, which do not follow the classic patterns of benign and malignant neoplasms. The rarity of some of these lesions makes it even more difficult to understand the mechanisms involved in the etiopathogenesis. Molecular markers such as the EZH2 protein have been used to investigate epigenetic changes in different neoplasms, helping to define the diagnosis and prognosis of the lesions. The aim of the study was to evaluate the expression of the EZH2 protein and to describe the clinical and microscopic characteristics of adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) and pleomorphic adenoma (PA) which emphasizes the importance of defining the malignancy of the neoplasm. Histopathological analysis of PA cases showed myoepithelial and glandular epithelial cells arranged as duct-like structures and sheets intermingled in the variable stroma and ACC cases showed the three growth patterns, tubular, cribriform and solid forms. All ACC and PA cases were positive for EZH2, with diffuse nuclear staining in neoplastic cells. The ACC samples showed significantly higher EZH2 expression compared to the PA. The covariables nodal metastasis, recurrence, growth pattern, presence of solid areas and perineural invasion have been described in relation to EZH2 staining in ACC samples. The results of the study improve the understanding of the clinical and histological characteristics of ACC, as well as on the behavior of lesions. In addition, the analysis showed that EZH2 is a potential marker of malignancy and highlights the importance of validating molecular markers of epigenetic alterations.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor worldwise. The incidence rate of HCC is high and is easy to metastasis and recurrence, which seriously affects human health. Traditional chemical drugs have some challenges such as toxicity, side effects, and multidrug resistance, thus it is urgent to find new drugs and effective targets. Here we synthesized a novel chemical, protonic bis-phenanthroline (H-BP), and the antitumor effect was investigated in the study. The results showed that H-BP could selectively inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells and cause HCC apoptosis. And also, in HCC tumor-bearing mice, H-BP could effectively prevent the growth of tumor mass, even completely eliminate the tumor at medium dose (5 mg·kg-1) and high dose (10 mg·kg-1), and meanwhile H-BP has no significant effect on the body weight of mice. The experimental protocol was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Southwest University, and the experimental operation was strictly carried out in accordance with the ethical principles of animal use and care. Mechanism studies showed that H-BP induced HCC apoptosis was related to down-regulation the expression of pleomorphic adenoma gene like-2 (PLAGL2), a oncogene transcription factor, resulting in the down-regulation of PLAGL2 downstream proteins hypoxia inducible factor and β-catenin. This study not only introduces the dimerization method to form novel compounds that will provide a new approach for drug design, but also suggests that PLAGL2 may be an effective target in tumor therapy.

The survival, healing and complications of the flap were observed during the 3-month follow-up. @*Results @#The buccal fat pad flaps of 19 patients all survived. Five days after the operation, the buccal fat pad flap was dark red with slight edema, and the maxillary defect area collapsed. Ten days after the operation, most of the buccal fat pad flap turned pink, and the collapse was alleviated. One month after the operation, the buccal fat pad flap had no obvious collapse, and its surface was epithelialized, with a shape and color close to those of the normal mucosa. The opening was slightly limited. Three months after the operation, the buccal fat pad flap was completely epithelialized, with no difference from the surrounding tissue, and the opening was approximately 3 transverse fingers. No complications, such as swelling and necrosis of the buccal fat pad flap, limitation of mouth opening, maxillary sinus fistulas, oral-nasal communications and facial changes occurred in 19 patients within 3 months after the operation.@*Conclusion @#The application of a buccal fat pad flap has a good effect to repair maxillary tissue defects and close oral maxillary sinus communication with diameters less than 5 cm, so it can be widely used in the clinic.

Objective: Describe a case of pleomorphic adenoma, with emphasis on clinical and pathological aspects, differential diagnosis and clinical management. Case report: A male 72-year-old patient presents with a well-defined nodular lesion in the lower section of the left maxillary groove with a time of evolution of four years. Excisional biopsy was performed. The diagnostic hypotheses considered were lymphoid hyperplasia, pleomorphic adenoma and lipoma, with greater attention to the latter, due to the fact that it floated in formaldehyde. Microscopic examination revealed proliferation of epithelial and myoepithelial cells amidst a variable stroma. Thus, a histopathological diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma was issued. Conclusion: The present study highlights the importance of careful histopathological examination to rule out other diagnostic hypotheses and malignant neoplasms. Next, clinical and microscopic findings will lead to an accurate diagnosis indispensable to adopt an appropriate therapeutic approach(AU)

INTRODUÇÃO: O adenoma pleomórfico é o tumor misto glandular benigno mais comum das glândulas salivares, raramente encontrado na cavidade nasal. A apresentação clínica típica é de obstrução nasal unilateral associada à epistaxe e à presença de uma massa polipoide, lisa, lobulada e firme na fossa nasal. O diagnóstico é feito por exame anatomopatológico, e o tratamento de escolha é cirúrgico, com ressecção do tumor com margem de segurança. RELATO DE CASO: O caso relatado é de uma paciente de 49 anos, com adenoma pleomórfico nasal, diagnosticado e tratado cirurgicamente. CONCLUSÃO: A importância do caso relatado reside na raridade do tumor nessa localização, sendo um diagnóstico diferencial que deve ser lembrado para os tumores nasais
INTRODUCTION: The pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign mixed tumor of salivary glands, rarely found in the nasal cavity. Its typical clinical presentation is a unilat-eral nasal obstruction associated with an epistaxis and a presence of a polypoid, smooth, lobulated, and firm mass in the nasal fossa. It is diagnosed by anatomopathological ex-amination, and the treatment of choice is surgical with tumor resection, keeping a safety margin. CASE REPORT: The case reported is a female 49-year-old patient, diagnosed with a nasal pleomorphic adenoma that was surgically treated. CONCLUSION: The importance of the case reported lies in the rarity of the pleomorphic adenoma located in this area. Therefore, this is a differential diagnosis that must be remembered for nasal tumors.

Objective To investigate the expression of mitochondrial autophagy-associated protein PINK1 and Parkin in parotid pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma(CA-EX-PA). Methods The expression of PINK1 and Parkin were detected by immunohistochemistry in 24 cases of normal parotid gland tissues, 32 cases of PA tissues and 42 cases of CA-EX-PA tissues. The correlations of PINK1 and Parkin expression with the clinicopathologic characteristics of CA-EX-PA patients were analyzed. Results The positive rates of PINK1 in normal parotid gland, PA and CA-EX-PA tissues were 100%, 91% and 67% respectively; and those of Parkin were 100%, 88% and 52% respectively. The expression rates of PINK1 and Parkin in PA and CA-EX-PA tissues were significantly lower than those in normal tissues (P < 0.05). The expression of PINK1 and Parkin protein were positively correlated in CA-EX-PA tissues (r=0.877, P < 0.01). In CA-EX-PA tissues, the expression of PINK1 and Parkin were associated with tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (P < 0.05). Conclusion The expression of PINK1 and Parkin are decreased in PA and CA-EX-PA tissues. The decrease of mitochondrial autophagy activity might play important roles in the development, invasion and metastasis of parotid gland tumors.
