Malignant salivary gland tumours: treatment outcomes from a tertiary referral centre in the UK.

Salivary gland malignant tumours are a complex and highly variable pathological group. Their diagnosis can be challenging, and management is guided by multidisciplinary teams. This project aimed to establish clinicopathological and sociodemographic features that significantly impacted overall disease-free or progression-free survival in patients diagnosed with malignant salivary gland disease between 2010 and 2019 in a tertiary referral centre.

The presence of two histologically distinct lesions within the same salivary gland is rare. The majority of lesions detected in salivary glands are benign and unifocal. Ultrasound scans and MRI imaging may not detect separate lesions that are in close proximity and this presents a challenge for radiologists and surgeons in the diagnosis of salivary gland lesions.
