Abstract
Objective: To provide a comprehensive review of nonsurgical approaches for the management of Warthin's tumors (WTs) and evaluate their safety and efficacy as alternatives to surgical intervention. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases using specific keywords related to WT and nonsurgical treatments. Studies published before 2012, non-English publications, and mixed methodology articles were excluded. The selection process involved title and abstract screening, followed by a thorough assessment of the remaining articles based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data regarding study characteristics, participants, interventions, and outcomes were collected. Results: A total of 1582 records were analyzed, and 6 studies met the inclusion criteria. These studies evaluated different nonsurgical interventions for WT management, including microwave ablation, radiofrequency ablation, and ultrasound-guided ethanol sclerotherapy. The findings demonstrated that microwave ablation and radiofrequency ablation led to a significant reduction in tumor size and improved cosmetic appearance. Ultrasound-guided ethanol sclerotherapy also resulted in a notable decrease in tumor size without complications. The included studies supported the safety and efficacy of these nonsurgical options for the treatment of WTs. Conclusion: Nonsurgical approaches, such as microwave ablation, radiofrequency ablation, and ultrasound-guided ethanol sclerotherapy, have emerged as viable alternatives to surgical intervention for the management of WTs. These interventions offer promising outcomes in terms of tumor size reduction and cosmetic improvement. Further research with larger sample sizes and long-term follow-up is warranted to validate these findings and establish standardized protocols for nonsurgical management of WTs.

Abstract
PURPOSE Warthin tumors (WT) are the second most common benign parotid gland neoplasms. They can occur as synchronous or metachronous lesions in 6-10% of cases. This study aims to compare the complication rate in 224 patients who underwent extracapsular dissection (ECD) or superficial parotidectomy (SP) for the treatment of a WT. METHODS This retrospective study was conducted at the Department of Maxillo-Facial Surgery at the University of Naples "Federico II" from February 2002 to December 2018 on a group of patients who underwent surgical treatment for WT. The type of surgical technique was chosen based on Quer's classification. The complications evaluated were facial nerve palsy, hematoma, Frey's syndrome, and bleeding. RESULTS A total of 224 patients treated from 2002 to 2018 for Warthin tumor were included in the study. Two hundred elven had solitary tumors (94.1%) and 13 had multicentric lesions (5.8%), of which 9 cases presented synchronous lesions and 4 cases presented metachronous lesions. Extracapsular dissection (ECD) was performed in 130 patients (58.3% of cases) and superficial parotidectomy (SP) in the other 94 (41.7% of cases). CONCLUSIONS We consider both surgical techniques as valid. In our opinion, it is essential to study each case based on Quer's Classification to obtain the best surgical outcome. Based on a lower observed rate of complications such as facial nerve palsy, Frey's syndrome, and bleeding, ECD seems to be the best option for the surgical treatment of Quer Class I lesions.

Abstract
Cystic lesions of the salivary glands are very uncommon entities. However, on occasion, some neoplasms of the salivary glands show a cystic component, which may be predominant or only partially cystic. Basal cell adenoma, canalicular adenoma, oncocytoma, sebaceous adenoma, intraductal papilloma, epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma, intraductal carcinoma, and secretory carcinoma are such cystic entities. Cystic degeneration and necrosis, which can develop within solid tumours, represent another possibility. The ability to recognise this type of lesion is a challenge in diagnostic cytology because hypocellular fluid is frequently recovered. Furthermore, evaluating all of the differential diagnoses for cystic lesions of the salivary glands is helpful in obtaining the correct diagnosis. Herein, we evaluate the various types of cystic lesions within the salivary glands.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oncocytes are a component of many metaplastic and neoplastic lesions throughout the head and neck area, primarily originating in salivary/seromucinous glands and the thyroid gland. In addition, other lesions can contain cells that mimic oncocytes (pseudo-oncocytes); these can be of epithelial or non-epithelial origin. METHODS Review article. RESULTS Oncocytic metaplasia is common in seromucinous glands throughout the upper aerodigestive tract, most notable in the oral cavity, nasopharynx and larynx. The main oncocytic salivary gland neoplasms are Warthin tumor and oncocytoma. Infarction of Warthin tumor may lead to recognition difficulties. Oncocytic subtypes of mucoepidermoid carcinoma and intraductal carcinoma have morphologic and immunohistochemical features that allow distinction from major oncocytic entities. Oncocytic thyroid tumors include adenoma, carcinoma (follicular, papillary and medullary), along with poorly differentiated tumors. Oncocytic papillary sinonasal and middle ear tumors must be distinguished from low grade adenocarcinomas. Pseudo-oncocytic entities include paraganglioma, Langerhans cell histiocytosis, giant cell tumor, rhabdomyoma, and metastatic tumors. CONCLUSIONS Correct diagnosis of oncocytic head and neck lesions requires a knowledge of the spectrum of possible entities, their characteristic sites of occurrence, architecture, histomorphology, and immunohistochemistry. Oncocytic subtypes of several newly described entities are now recognized. Both epithelial and non-epithelial mimics of oncocytes exist. The molecular features of oncocytic tumors can be helpful in their diagnosis and understanding their pathogenesis.

Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Map–Based Radiomics Features for Differential Diagnosis of Pleomorphic Adenomas and Warthin Tumors From Malignant Tumors. Front Oncol 2022; 12:830496. [PMID: 35747827 PMCID: PMC9210443 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.830496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2021] [Accepted: 04/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
PurposeThe magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings may overlap due to the complex content of parotid gland tumors and the differentiation level of malignant tumor (MT); consequently, patients may undergo diagnostic lobectomy. This study assessed whether radiomics features could noninvasively stratify parotid gland tumors accurately based on apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps.MethodsThis study examined diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) obtained with echo planar imaging sequences. Eighty-eight benign tumors (BTs) [54 pleomorphic adenomas (PAs) and 34 Warthin tumors (WTs)] and 42 MTs of the parotid gland were enrolled. Each case was randomly divided into training and testing cohorts at a ratio of 7:3 and then was compared with each other, respectively. ADC maps were digitally transferred to ITK SNAP (www.itksnap.org). The region of interest (ROI) was manually drawn around the whole tumor margin on each slice of ADC maps. After feature extraction, the Synthetic Minority Oversampling TEchnique (SMOTE) was used to remove the unbalance of the training dataset. Then, we applied the normalization process to the feature matrix. To reduce the similarity of each feature pair, we calculated the Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) value of each feature pair and eliminated one of them if the PCC value was larger than 0.95. Then, recursive feature elimination (RFE) was used to process feature selection. After that, we used linear discriminant analysis (LDA) as the classifier. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the ADC.ResultsThe LDA model based on 13, 8, 3, and 1 features can get the highest area under the ROC curve (AUC) in differentiating BT from MT, PA from WT, PA from MT, and WT from MT on the validation dataset, respectively. Accordingly, the AUC and the accuracy of the model on the testing set achieve 0.7637 and 73.17%, 0.925 and 92.31%, 0.8077 and 75.86%, and 0.5923 and 65.22%, respectively.ConclusionThe ADC-based radiomics features may be used to assist clinicians for differential diagnosis of PA and WT from MTs.

Current Trends and Controversies in the Management of Warthin Tumor of the Parotid Gland. Diagnostics (Basel) 2021; 11:diagnostics11081467.

Abstract
Purpose: To review the current options in the management of Warthin tumors (WTs) and to propose a working management protocol. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed and ScienceDirect database. A total of 141 publications were selected and have been included in this review. Publications were selected based on relevance, scientific evidence, and actuality. Results: The importance of parotid WTs is increasing due to its rising incidence in many countries, becoming the most frequently encountered benign parotid tumor in certain parts of the world. In the past, all WTs were treated with surgery, but because of their slow growth rate, often minimal clinical symptoms, and the advanced age of many patients, active observation has gradually become more widely used. In order to decide on active surveillance, the diagnosis of WT must be reliable, and clinical, imaging, and cytological data should be concordant. There are four clear indications for upfront surgery: uncertain diagnosis; cosmetic problems; clinical complaints, such as pain, ulceration, or recurrent infection; and the patient’s wish to have the tumor removed. In the remaining cases, surgery can be elective. Active surveillance is often suggested as the first approach, with surgery being considered if the tumor progresses and/or causes clinical complaints. The extent of surgery is another controversial topic, and the current trend is to minimize the resection using partial parotidectomies and extracapsular dissections when possible. Recently, non-surgical options such as microwave ablation, radiofrequency ablation, and ultrasound-guided ethanol sclerotherapy have been proposed for selected cases. Conclusions: The management of WT is gradually shifting from superficial or total parotidectomy to more conservative approaches, with more limited resections, and to active surveillance in an increasing number of patients. Additionally, non-surgical treatments are emerging, but their role needs to be defined in future studies.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore conventional, diffusion, and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) characteristics for differentiating metaplastic Warthin's tumor (MWT) from other tumor types of the parotid gland, including non-metaplastic Warthin's tumor (non-MWT), pleomorphic adenoma (PA), and malignant tumor (MT). A total of 178 patients with histologically proven tumors of the parotid gland, including 21 MWTs, 49 non-MWTs, 66 PAs, and 42 MTs, were enrolled in the study. Conventional MRI was performed in all patients. One hundred and fifty patients had preoperative diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI), and 62 patients had preoperative DCE-MRI. The differences in the conventional, DCE-MRI, and DWI records between MWTs and the other three tumor types were statistically evaluated. Compared with non-MWTs and PAs, there was a statistically significant difference in circumscription (p < 0.01). The ill-defined circumscription was more common in MWTs than non-MWTs and PAs. Compared with PAs, there was a statistically significant difference in morphology (p < 0.05). The lobulated morphology was more common in PAs than MWTs. Compared with PAs and MTs, there was a statistically significant difference in the T2 signal of the solid component (p < 0.01). The T2 moderate intensity of solid components was more common in MWTs than PAs and MTs. The solid components of PAs mostly showed hyperintense on T2-weighted imaging. Cyst/necrosis was more common in MWTs than PAs and MTs. Hyperintense of cyst/necrosis was more common in MWTs and non-MWTs. With respect to contrast enhancement, 52.4% MWTs exhibited moderate or marked enhancement, and most non-MWTs (81.6%) exhibited mild enhancement. Most PAs (84.8%) exhibited marked enhancement. The mean ADC value of MWTs (0.94 × 10-3 ± 0.11 mm2/s) was significantly lower than that of the PAs (1.60 × 10-3 ± 0.17 mm2/s) (p < 0.001). On DCE-MRI, six of eight MWTs demonstrated TIC of type B. Although MWT is rare, conventional MRI characteristics, DWI and DCE-MRI can provide useful information for differentiating MWT from other parotid mass.

Abstract
Background Accurate diagnosis of malignancy in the parotid gland before surgery is often challenging. Various clues should be used to increase the index of suspicion for malignancy. We hypothesized that malignant lesions of the parotid gland are located at the superior part of the gland compared to benign ones. Methods A total of 169 consecutive patients were included in this study whose medical records were retrospectively reviewed. Benign and malignant tumors were compared in size, height difference from five anatomical landmarks: hard palate, mastoid tip, earlobe, condylar head, and mandibular notch. The cutoff heights from significant landmarks (hard palate, condylar head) were estimated with ROC analysis and chi-square test. Results Twenty-nine patients (17.2%) were diagnosed with malignant and 140 patients (82.8%) as benign. The height differed significantly between benign and malignant tumors when the reference point was set for the hard palate (P=0.024) and the condylar head (P=0.049), with the cutoff height from reference points to be 22.5, 51.5 mm, respectively. Diagnostic values of parotid level difference presented higher sensitivity (75.9% for hard palate, 72.4% for condylar head vs. 47.8% for fine needle aspiration cytology) and lower false negative rate (24.1% for hard palate, 27.6% for condylar head vs. 52.2% for fine needle aspiration cytology) compared to fine needle aspiration cytology. Conclusions Malignant tumors of the parotid gland tend to locate at the superior part of the gland compared to benign tumors. Parotid tumors lying cephalad should raise an index of suspicion for malignancy. Height of the tumor in the parotid gland should be deliberately considered during the first encounter of the patient, which in turn could curate the next step in the diagnostic approach and treatment planning.

Abstract
We performed an epidemiological, clinical and histopathological analysis of oral lymphoid lesions (OLLs) during a 47-year period. Data regarding patient age, sex, duration, location, symptomatology, type of growth, implantation, staining, presence of ulceration and bleeding of all cases were compiled from the clinical data. For the histopathological analyses, all slides stained by H/E were reassessed. During the analyzed period, 14,565 patients with oral and maxillofacial lesions were diagnosed, with 45 cases diagnosed as OLLs. The most prevalent location was the tongue. Females were more affected, and the mean age was 40.8 years. OLLs presented a heterogeneous frequency, with the prevalence of reactive lesions (42.3%) followed by developmental lesions (35.6%). Among the reactive lesions, foreign body granulomas were the most common. Regarding diagnosed neoplasms, malignant represented 13.2% of the cases. The average time of evolution of OLLs in general was of 22.2 months. Regarding the histopathological characteristics, the presence of primary lymphoid follicles was observed in 37.8% of the cases, while inflammatory infiltrates were diffuse in 66.7% and epimyoepithelial islands were observed in 13.3%. Our study concludes that OLLs involves a broad spectrum of lesions that share the presence of the lymphoid component, which can range from indolent to more aggressive behavior.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to compare multifocal extracapsular dissection with complete parotidectomy in the treatment of unilateral multifocal cystadenolymphomas of the parotid gland. MATERIALS AND METHODS The records from all patients treated for unilateral multifocal cystadenolymphomas of the parotid gland at a tertiary referral center between 2000 and 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS 203 patients were included in the study. 96 patients were managed by multifocal extracapsular dissection, 107 patients underwent complete parotidectomy. Metachronous tumors were detected in 7 cases (3.4%) with a significant difference in the occurrence rate between multifocal extracapsular dissection (7/96, 7.3%) and complete parotidectomy (0/107, 0%) (p = 0.004). Permanent facial palsy was significantly more common after complete parotidectomy (21/107, 19.6%) than multifocal extracapsular dissection (2/96, 2.1%) (p = 0.000). CONCLUSIONS The functional benefit of multifocal extracapsular dissection was counterbalanced by the advantage of complete parotidectomy, in terms of recurrences. Extracapsular dissection is at its limit in cases of multifocal cystadenolymphomas and the indication for it should be thoroughly verified in each and every case.

Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2018; 47:913-917. [PMID: 29627151 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijom.2018.03.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2017] [Revised: 12/31/2017] [Accepted: 03/18/2018] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
There is little information in the English-language literature regarding Warthin's tumour (WT) in the eastern-Chinese population. A large retrospective study (1084 primary tumours over a period of 18years) was carried out to investigate the clinicopathological features (patients' gender, age and tumour location) of these tumours in this population. A total of 994 (91.7%) patients were male and 90 (8.3%) were female, with a male/female ratio of 11:1. The mean age was 56.48years (range 20-89years), with a peak incidence in the fifth to seventh decade (82.1%). The favorite primary site of the tumour was the parotid gland (n=1055), followed by intra-/peri-parotid lymph nodes (n=13), upper neck (n=10), submandibular gland (n=4) and upper lip (n=1). Multifocal WTs arose in 9.5% (103 patients) of cases whereas bilateral multifocal WTs were found in 0.65% (seven patients). In 24 (2.2%) patients, WT were found to coexist with other different types of neoplasm synchronously. The most common subtype of metaplasia was the squamous metaplasia (166/250, 66.4%). The usual treatment measure is (bilateral) superficial parotidectomy and the patients should be followed long term, in view of possible metachronous WT, even after prolonged time intervals.

Abstract
Fine needle aspiration (FNA) has diagnostic and therapeutic value in the management of salivary gland cysts. Rendering an accurate diagnosis from an aspirated salivary gland cyst is challenging because of the broad differential diagnosis, possibility of sampling error, frequent hypocellularity of specimens, morphologic heterogeneity, and overlapping cytomorphology of many cystic entities. To date, there have been no comprehensive review articles providing a practical diagnostic approach to FNA of cystic lesions of salivary glands. This article reviews the cytopathology of salivary gland cysts employing 2017 World Health Organization terminology, addresses the accuracy of FNA, and presents The Milan System approach for reporting in cystic salivary gland cases. The utility of separating FNA specimens from salivary gland cysts, based upon the presence of mucin and admixed lymphocytes in cyst fluid is demonstrated. A reliable approach to interpreting FNA specimens from patients with cystic salivary gland lesions is essential to accurately determine which of these patients may require subsequent surgery.
