Abstract
INTRODUCTION There has been historical controversy regarding the extent of resection in the management of pleomorphic adenomas. This study aims to evaluate the extent of surgery and short-term postoperative outcomes of partial superficial parotidectomy (PSP) for the management of pleomorphic adenomas at a tertiary, high-volume center. METHODS A retrospective chart review of patients who underwent PSP was performed. Variables included demographics, pre-operative facial nerve function, operative techniques, postoperative complications/facial nerve function, and recurrence. RESULTS 151 adults who underwent PSP for pleomorphic adenoma from January 1st, 2000 to December 31st, 2022 were identified. Median age was 55 (IQR 40-66) years with females representing 74 % of the cohort. Median tumor size at presentation was 1.8 (IQR 1.3-2.3) cm. Baseline facial nerve function was excellent for most patients (House-Brackmann I, 99 %). Most patients underwent a superficial inferior parotidectomy (88 %). Modified Blair incision (70 %) was the most common incision. Intraoperatively, the facial nerve was identified in 149 (99 %) patients. The main trunk was identified in 126 (85 %) patients. No patient had tumor spillage. Only two patients required parotid bed reconstruction. The most common complication was ear numbness (60 %). Postoperatively, 114 patients were House-Brackmann grade I at both preoperative and postoperative assessment, 8 went from grade I to II, and 1 went from grade VI to II (Bell's palsy that resolved to grade II following surgery). Median follow-up was 1(IQR 1-5) month. CONCLUSION PSP is efficacious in the management of pleomorphic adenomas with preservation of facial nerve function, and minimal post-operative complications. Future study is needed to assess long term recurrence risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review analyzed the clinical behavior and odds of malignancy of the palatal recurrent pleomorphic adenomas. METHODS Systematic review of patients with recurrent pleomorphic adenoma arising in the palate. Database search: MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane, EMBASE, Virtual Health Library, Google Scholar, and OpenGrey. A binomial logistic regression was performed to assess the odds of detecting recurrence five, 10 and 20 years after the treatment of primary tumor. RESULTS Thirteen studies (n = 18 patients) out of 336 were included. The recurrent pleomorphic adenoma in palate was more common in females (61.6%), average age was 49 years old (range 9-73 years old). Four patients progressed to malignant transformation. The odds ratio (OR) of detecting a recurrence at 10 (OR = 5.57; 95% confidence interval - 95%CI 1.13-27.52), and 20 years (OR = 18.78; 95%CI 3.18-110.84) after treatment of primary pleomorphic adenoma was significantly higher than at one-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The recurrence of pleomorphic adenoma in palate remains a rare event of late occurrence. It mainly affects middle-aged female and carries a risk of malignant transformation. Although uncommon, patients with palatal pleomorphic adenoma should be warned about the possibility of recurrence or malignant transformation of tumor at advanced ages.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) of the lip is not a common phenomenon, and existing literature provides limited information on the clinicopathological features of labial PA. STUDY DESIGN Patients diagnosed with labial PA at our single institution over the past 20 years (2001-2020) was retrospectively screened and analyzed to investigate the epidemiologic and clinicopathological features of these tumors. RESULTS A total of 173 cases were screened out, and the average age was 44.3 (range 7-82) years, with a peak incidence rate during the third decade. A slight predilection for men (52%) was observed, and PA occurs more frequently in the upper lip than in the lower lip, with a ratio of 14.7:1. On clinical examination, labial PAs usually present as painless masses that develop slowly with no systemic symptoms. Histologically, labial PAs contain myoepithelial and polygonal epithelial cells in myxoid, hyaline, fibrous, chondroid, and even osseous tissues, similar to those in other sites. Specifically, 15 of 173 patients with labial PA presented with cutaneous PA. CONCLUSION Labial PA presents over a wide age range and dominantly occurs at the upper lip. Surgical resection is the major treatment strategy, and postoperative recurrence or malignant transformation of labial PA was extremely rare.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parotid pleomorphic adenoma (PA) patients present significant diagnostic and surgical challenges rendering them high risk for facial nerve injury. Recurrent PA patients often present with history of facial nerve injury or previous reanimations making salvage of the facial nerve or previous reanimations significantly more complex. The study aim is to share our experience with this high risk for facial nerve injury population and review the literature. METHODS Adult patients with recurrent PA and history of facial nerve injury with at least 3 months of follow-up were analyzed for demographics, facial palsy history, previous head and neck surgeries, previous facial paralysis reconstruction, preoperative imaging, surgical approach, and postoperative outcomes. RESULTS Four female patients were identified with an average age of 62 years. All patients underwent an initial protective dissection of the facial nerve or previous reanimation reconstruction by the facial nerve reconstructive team followed by the extirpative team. The average number of previous head and neck surgeries was 5, the number of recurrences was 2, and follow-up was 20 months. Half had prior dynamic facial reanimation. Two patients underwent complete preextirpative dissection of the facial nerve resulting in neuropraxia, which recovered completely after an average of 143 days. A third patient presented with 2 recurrences, both during and after reanimation with a dually innervated free functional muscle transfer. The reconstruction was salvaged, and motion was achieved. A fourth patient presented with benign preoperative findings, but intraoperative findings confirmed malignancy, necessitating facial nerve sacrifice, followed by immediate intratemporal grafting of the facial nerve and masseteric nerve transfer. Motion appeared 139 days postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS A multidisciplinary effort should be implemented in this high risk for facial nerve injury population with the primary goal of protecting the facial nerve or any previous reanimation procedures, yet with preparedness to apply any reconstructive strategy based on intraoperative findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to analyze the prognostic determinants for re-recurrence and malignant transformation of parotid recurrent pleomorphic adenoma (RPA). METHODS Between January 2011 and December 2020, all the cases of RPA of the parotid gland at our single institution were reviewed. RESULTS A total of 168 patients were included in this study, with a median age of 41.5 years, and 20 (11.9%) patients developed re-recurrence during follow-up. It has been evidenced that recurrence times (single or multiple) was an independent prognostic factor for recurrence-free survival (p = 0.0264). A total of 26 (15.48%) patients experienced malignant transformation of parotid RPA, and older age (>45 year old), male sex, and higher clinical tumor staging (T3-T4) were significantly associated with malignant transformation of parotid RPA. CONCLUSIONS Recurrence times was an independent prognostic factor for re-recurrence of parotid RPA, and older male with high T-stage may more easily develop malignant transformation.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to explore the value of pre-/post-contrast-enhanced T1 mapping and readout segmentation of long variable echo-train diffusion-weighted imaging (RESOLVE-DWI) for the differential diagnosis of parotid gland tumors. METHODS A total of 128 patients with histopathologically confirmed parotid gland tumors [86 benign tumors (BTs) and 42 malignant tumors (MTs)] were retrospectively recruited. BTs were further divided into pleomorphic adenomas (PAs, n = 57) and Warthin's tumors (WTs, n = 15). MRI examinations were performed before and after contrast injection to measure the longitudinal relaxation time (T1) value (T1p and T1e, respectively) and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of the parotid gland tumors. The reduction in T1 (T1d) values and the percentage of T1 reduction (T1d%) were calculated. RESULTS The T1d and ADC values of the BTs were considerably higher than those of the MTs (all P <.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of the T1d and ADC values for differentiating between BTs and MTs of the parotid was 0.618 and 0.804, respectively (all P <.05). The AUC of the T1p, T1d, T1d%, and ADC values for differentiating between PAs and WTs was 0.926, 0.945, 0.925, and 0.996, respectively (all P >.05). The ADC and T1d% + ADC values performed better in differentiating between PAs and MTs than the T1p, T1d, and T1d% (AUC values: 0.902, 0.909, 0.660, 0.726, and 0.736, respectively). The T1p, T1d, T1d%, and T1d% + T1p values all had high diagnosis efficacy in differentiating WTs from MTs (AUC values: 0.865, 0.890, 0.852, and 0.897, respectively, all P >.05). CONCLUSION T1 mapping and RESOLVE-DWI can be used to differentiate parotid gland tumors quantitatively and can be complementary to each other.

Chromosome Translocations, Gene Fusions, and Their Molecular Consequences in Pleomorphic Salivary Gland Adenomas. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10081970.

Abstract
Salivary gland tumors are a heterogeneous group of tumors originating from the major and minor salivary glands. The pleomorphic adenoma (PA), which is the most common subtype, is a benign lesion showing a remarkable morphologic diversity and that, upon recurrence or malignant transformation, can cause significant clinical problems. Cytogenetic studies of >500 PAs have revealed a complex and recurrent pattern of chromosome rearrangements. In this review, we discuss the specificity and frequency of these rearrangements and their molecular/clinical consequences. The genomic hallmark of PA is translocations with breakpoints in 8q12 and 12q13-15 resulting in gene fusions involving the transcription factor genes PLAG1 and HMGA2. Until recently, the association between these two oncogenic drivers was obscure. Studies of the Silver−Russel syndrome, a growth retardation condition infrequently caused by mutations in IGF2/HMGA2/PLAG1, have provided new clues to the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of PA. These studies have demonstrated that HMGA2 is an upstream regulator of PLAG1 and that HMGA2 regulates the expression of IGF2 via PLAG1. This provides a novel explanation for the 8q12/12q13-15 aberrations in PA and identifies IGF2 as a major oncogenic driver and therapeutic target in PA. These studies have important diagnostic and therapeutic implications for patients with PA.

Abstract
Background: We assessed the cases of intraoperative spillage of primary pleomorphic adenomas (PPAs) of the parotid gland in the literature, comparing them with our own cases. We aim to explain how the surgeon should manage a spillage during surgery (i.e., how to avoid spreading the contents that are coming out of the tumor). We also aim to investigate whether or not spillage is linked to a higher rate of PPA recurrence. Methods: We collected surgical and pathological reports, taking data on capsular ruptures and the spillage of tumors. Results: Intraoperative tumor spillage and tumor rupture occurred in 34/202 cases. There were three recurrences after a mean of 3.7 years (mean follow-up duration: 10.3 years). One recurrence happened to a patient who had an intraoperative tumor spillage, and two more recurrences happened to patients who did not have spillage. Conclusion: We believe that the real number of the events of spillage is underestimated and underreported by surgeons. Capsular rupture must always be avoided, and secure resection margins must always be pursued, independent of the type of parotidectomy being performed. Features that increase the risk of recurrence are an intraoperative rupture and the presence of satellite nodules (as recorded in the pathologist’s report). In these cases, patients need a longer follow-up period.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the value of the signal intensity on T2-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging using quantitative analysis in the differentiation of parotid tumors. Materials and Methods MR data of 80 pleomorphic adenomas (PAs), 68 Warthin tumors (WTs), and 34 malignant tumors (MTs) confirmed by surgery and histology were retrospectively analyzed. The signal intensities of tumor, normal parotid gland, spinal cord, and buccal subcutaneous fat were measured, and the signal intensity ratios (SIRs) between the tumor and the three references were calculated. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the optimal threshold and diagnostic efficiency of SIR for differentiating PAs, WTs, and MTs. Results The area under the curve (AUC) of tumor to parotid gland SIR (SIRP), tumor to spinal cord SIR (SIRC), and tumor to buccal subcutaneous fat SIR (SIRF) for differentiating PAs and WTs was 0.922, 0.918, and 0.934, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity at an optimal SIR threshold were 86.3% and 91.2%, 80.0% and 97.1%, and 85.0% and 94.1%, respectively. The AUC of SIRP, SIRC, and SIRF for distinguishing PAs from MTs was 0.793, 0.802, and 0.774, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity at an optimal SIR threshold was 86.3% and 61.8%, 80.0% and 73.5%, and 82.5% and 73.5%, respectively. The AUC of SIRP, SIRC, and SIRF for distinguishing WTs from MTs was 0.716, 0.709, and 0.759, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity at an optimal SIR threshold were 61.8% and 82.4%, 55.9% and 82.4%, and 64.7% and 86.8%, respectively. Conclusion SIRP, SIRC, and SIRF on T2-weighted MR images had high diagnostic efficiency for differentiating between PAs and WTs, while SIRP and SIRC for differentiating between PAs and MTs, and SIRF for differentiating between WTs and MTs had relatively high diagnostic efficiency.
