Salivary gland tumours are growths that develop in the major or minor salivary glands, which produce saliva throughout the mouth and throat. They span a wide range of histological types and behaviours; the majority are benign, with pleomorphic adenoma being the most common, while a minority are malignant. Tumours most often arise in the parotid gland but can occur in the submandibular, sublingual, and the many minor salivary glands lining the oral cavity, pharynx, and upper airway, and they may present as a painless mass or with symptoms reflecting local growth. Accurate diagnosis relies on imaging, biopsy, and histopathology, and management commonly involves surgical excision, sometimes with adjuvant treatment for malignant disease. The journal Hematology and Oncology Research publishes peer-reviewed work on the biology, diagnosis, and treatment of tumours. Relevant work in this collection includes a report of pleomorphic adenoma, a benign salivary-gland-type tumour, arising in the nasal septum, and a case series on common tumours presenting in unusual anatomical locations. This page gathers open-access scholarship relevant to the pathology and clinical management of salivary gland and related tumours.
