Abstract
Pleomorphic adenomas are the most commonly presented salivary gland tumor; however, exact etiologies are unknown. We present a systemic review investigating the demographics, clinical presentations, characteristics, and anatomical locations of oral cavity pleomorphic adenoma. Three electronic databases (PubMed, MEDLINE, and Scopus) and one search engine (Google Scholar) were used to identify studies published in English with no restrictions on the year of publication up to the first week of August 2022. Studies retrieved from the literature involved clinical presentations, characteristics, and anatomical locations of oral cavity pleomorphic adenoma, data presented as frequencies and percentages. Our systematic review included 71 studies out of 2110 identified. Pleomorphic adenoma in the oral cavity was found more commonly in females [1508 (42.9%)] than males, with an age range of 6-83 years. The most common tumor location was the palate, followed by the lips; the jaw was the least common location identified. Most cases were not characterized of having a pleomorphic adenoma [(2,918 (83%))]. The most commonly mentioned characteristic was a painless mass [(561 (16%))] and the least common characteristics were dysphagia, change in sensation, and ill-fitting prosthesis. Pleomorphic adenoma of the oral cavity can have many presentations. In any oral cavity mass, pleomorphic adenoma should be included in the differential diagnosis and a complete surgical excision preferred treatment.

Abstract
We report the case of a 10-year-old girl with a painless slowly growing mass that had developed over the course of 2 years in the left submandibular area. Physical examination revealed a firm painless submandibular mass with no other associated signs. Ultrasound graphics were in favor of a sebaceous cyst. Fine-needle aspiration and magnetic resonance images (MRI) concluded to a pleomorphic adenoma of the submandibular gland. The patient underwent left submandibulectomy. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma arising from the submandibular gland. The postoperative course was uneventful. Pleomorphic adenoma of the submandibular gland represents a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma in children. Preoperative evaluation, including MRI and fine-needle aspiration, is recommended. Total submandibulectomy is also recommended to minimize recurrences and to avoid malignant transformation.

Abstract
Benign salivary gland tumors are rarely found in children and adolescents compared with adults. Pleomorphic adenomas (PAs), the most common benign salivary gland tumor, account for only 1% of all head and neck lesions and fewer than 5% of all salivary gland tumors in individuals under the age of 16 years. The data on palatal PA in the first 2 decades of life is confined to published case reports and case series. To date, there has never been a report of palatal PA in a patient with cleft lip and palate. Here we describe an adolescent female with bilateral cleft lip and palate with PA of the hard and soft palate who underwent wide local excision and reconstruction with a buccal fat pad and buccal myo-mucosal flap.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize the presentation and treatment of children presenting with primary salivary gland neoplasms. METHODS A retrospective review of primary salivary tumor patients presenting to Children's Hospital Colorado between January 2000 and August 2020. RESULTS Fifty children were identified with primary salivary gland tumors, comprising of 39 (78 %) benign and 11 (22 %) malignant lesions. Pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign tumor (36/39, 92 %), while acinic cell carcinoma was the most common malignancy (7/11, 64 %). The parotid gland was the most common site, followed by the submandibular gland (66 % vs. 34 %). No tumors were found in the sublingual glands. Benign neoplasms accounted for 70 % of parotid lesions and 94 % of submandibular tumors. No significant differences in age (13.6 years, SD 4 vs. 13.0 years, SD 4.3) were noted between patients with benign and malignant disease, but tumors in females were more frequently malignant (M:F 1:1.3 vs. 1:2.7 for benign and malignant tumors, respectively). Neck dissection and/or facial nerve sacrifice were required in 27 % (3/11) and 9.1 % (1/11) of malignancies, respectively. Local recurrence was observed in 7.7 % (3/39) of benign cases and 9.1 % (1/11) of malignant cases. No salivary malignancies required chemotherapy, though one patient with neurofibromatosis received imatinib prior to resection. Two patients with locoregional malignancy received adjunctive radiation. The average duration of follow up for benign and malignant disease were 12.6 ± 25 and 45.1 ± 32 months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study presents one of the larger single institutional experiences of pediatric primary salivary neoplasms in the past 20 years, identifying pleomorphic adenoma and acinic cell carcinoma as the most common benign and malignant etiologies, respectively. While this review found most neoplasms presented as a localized mass effectively managed with conservative surgical resection, aggressive tumors required multidisciplinary care.

Abstract
Salivary gland tumors in children are rare; involvement of accessory salivary glands is exceptional. We report a case of pleomorphic adenoma of the palate in a child (an 8-year-old girl) addressed by her dentist for discovering a swelling in the palate. Clinical examination revealed a firm, non-tender, nodular swelling in the left hard palate, measuring 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm, situated adjacent to the upper left second molar. Physical examination did not show signs of inflammation or surface ulceration. Oral cavity computed tomography scan did not show bone lysis. The tumor was removed with negative margins. No recurrence was noted. We aim to describe the clinical, radiological features, as well as the management of this rare localization of pleomorphic adenoma.

Abstract
Neoplasms of the salivary glands are relatively uncommon, with varied histologic subtypes. Only 5% of these occur in the pediatric age group. The submandibular gland tumors account for just 11.5% of pediatric salivary gland tumors. Few studies have reported the occurrence of pleomorphic adenoma arising in submandibular gland in a child. We describe a case of pleomorphic adenoma affecting submandibular gland in a girl aged eleven years and provide a brief review of current literature. Thorough diagnostic evaluation is required, considering the diverse differential diagnoses of pediatric submandibular masses. Although benign, recurrence and malignant transformation are pertinent concerns in pleomorphic adenoma, especially in a child, considering long life expectancy.

Abstract
We describe the case of a patient with the rare complication of a chronic postaural fistula following repeated and extensive surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy to the head and neck for a pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland. This case demonstrates the importance and value of thorough preoperative planning for major head and neck reconstruction, particularly if the area for reconstruction has distorted anatomy due to prior treatment or damage. In complex free flap reconstruction, it is important to investigate the recipient site with the help of arteriography and give due consideration to the donor site and its postoperative management. We highlight the importance of multidisciplinary work for the care of these patients not only intraoperatively, but also in the preoperative planning stage, and perhaps most importantly in the postoperative care.

Abstract
Salivary gland disorders are uncommon in children; they show a lower prevalence when compared to adults. The literature has a relative lack of information about the management and the different treatment protocols regarding these diseases. The aim of this research is to investigate the prevalence of both benign and malignant salivary gland disorders, focusing on diagnostic and therapy. An audit of patients diagnosed with salivary gland disorders was conducted from 2000 to 2020. 99 patients’ records were selected and analyzed: 51 males’ and 48 females’, age 10 ± 4 SD. Obstructive pathologies were the most frequently diagnosed (49 patients) followed by oncologic (21 patients), inflammatory (20 patients), rheumatologic (4 patients), malformative (3 patients) and infective disorders (2 patients). The parotid was the most affected major gland in 47 cases with a prevalence of diagnosis of juvenile recurrent parotitis (JRP) (40.4%), followed by the sublingual gland in 14 cases of ranula (100%) and the submandibular gland in 11 patients suffering from sialolithiasis (84.6%). Swelling was the most common symptom (75.7% of patients). Seven different neoplasms were documented. A greater prevalence of low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma among the malignant group (38.1% of oncologic cases) was noted. In regards to benign tumors, pleomorphic adenoma was the most common diagnosis (47.6% of cases). The symptoms and outcomes showed statistical significance concerning gender. Although salivary gland diseases in children and adolescents are rare, it is essential to observe and monitor all of the symptoms to intervene if necessary, as painless swelling is a symptom common from both benign and malignant diseases.

Abstract
Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) is an epithelial malignancy that transforms from benign pleomorphic adenomas (PA) at a rate of 1.5% after 5 years and 10% after 15 years. The average age of reported nasopharyngeal CXPA is 56.7 years. However, the present case describes a 19-year-old making this case exceptionally rare. Standard treatment is wide local excision with adjuvant treatment. We report the demographics, presentation, treatment, and outcomes of 8 cases of nasopharyngeal CXPA. While surgical excision is the mainstay of treatment, negative margins can be difficult to obtain at the skull base, and we report a recurrence rate of 50% in nasopharyngeal primaries. Due to the aggressive nature of the disease and high rate of recurrence, the majority of patients in our review received adjuvant radiation with some receiving adjuvant chemotherapy in addition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Salivary gland tumors are a diverse group of uncommon neoplasms that are rare in pediatric patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological profile and survival outcomes of pediatric patients affected by salivary gland tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS An extensive search was carried out using the MEDLINE/PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus databases, and grey literature. The risk of bias was available in all papers included. RESULTS A total of 2,830 articles were initially retrieved with 54 remaining for data extraction, resulting in 2,937 cases. This comprised forty-five case series' and nine cohort studies. These tumors were slightly more prevalent in females (57.4%). The patients' age ranged from 0.3 to 19 years old, with a mean age of 13.3 years. Parotid was the most affected site (81.9%), and 99.2% of cases clinically exhibited a swelling. Presence of pain/tenderness was reported in 13.5% of the cases, with an average duration of 12.6 months for the appearance of symptoms. Most of the reported cases were malignant tumors (75.4%), with mucoepidermoid carcinoma the most common tumor of all tumors (44.8%), followed by pleomorphic adenoma (24.1%). Surgery alone was the leading treatment choice in 74.9% cases, and the 5-year overall survival rate of patients was 93.1%. Patients with symptoms (P = .001), local recurrence (P < .001), metastasis (P < .001), and those not undergoing surgery or surgery combined with radiotherapy (P < .001) showed lower survival rates. CONCLUSION The pediatric patients present a high frequency of malignant salivary neoplasms and a high overall survival rate.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Salivary tumors are uncommon among children but are more likely to be malignant compared with adults. A lack of experience makes consensus in treatment elusive. Amidst recent publication of large institutional and national series, this review aims to discuss the epidemiology, diagnosis, investigation, and treatment for pediatric epithelial salivary malignancies. RECENT FINDINGS Pediatric salivary malignancies are often low grade and carry a favorable prognosis. High-grade tumors portend an increased risk of recurrence and a decreased survival. Surgeons should strive for oncologic resection with clear margins and avoid enucleation and excisional biopsies. Overt nodal metastases require concurrent neck dissection, whereas elective neck dissections may be reserved for cases with high risk of occult disease, such as advanced stage and high-grade neoplasms. Adjuvant radiation should be considered in high-grade tumors. SUMMARY The paucity of high-level evidence clouds treatment decisions and further encourages pediatric salivary malignancies to be treated in an experienced center with a multidisciplinary approach.
