Presumed Lacrimal Gland Pleomorphic Adenoma With Extensive Ossification and Necrosis.
Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg
May 2024
Article Synopsis
- - Calcification in pleomorphic adenomas of the lacrimal gland is rare and more common in lacrimal gland cancers, while bony formation (ossification) is even less frequent.
- - Occurrences of extensive sclerosis and ossification may indicate a higher risk of cancer transformation, but these changes can sometimes be mistaken for malignant conditions, confusing diagnosis.
- - Two case reports are discussed where patients with presumed pleomorphic adenomas showed histopathological signs of ossification and necrosis, yet no evidence of malignancy or invasive disease was found.
