A 57-year-old man presented in 2016 with a 4-month history of a right submandibular mass, having undergone left submandibular gland (SMG) excision in 2003. Imaging suggested a benign tumour and subsequent core biopsy findings suggested a nodular oncocytic hyperplasia, similar to the tumour removed from the contralateral side. This was confirmed on histological analysis following right submandibular gland excision which showed characteristic features of nodular oncocytic hyperplasia along with an unusual diffuse papillary cystadenoma-like ductal proliferation, similar to that seen in the 2003 specimen. A diagnosis of multinodular adenomatous oncocytic hyperplasia (MAOH) was rendered in order to communicate the unique histological features that have otherwise not been described in the literature. We believe that this is the first reported case of non-synchronous multinodular oncocytic hyperplasia and the first case affecting the submandibular glands.

With the advancement of molecular testing and the routine use of immunohistochemical stains, salivary gland tumours previously categorized as adenoma or adenocarcinoma, not otherwise specified, are being reclassified with distinct diagnoses. Newly recognized benign entities include: sclerosing polycystic adenoma, keratocystoma, intercalated duct hyperplasia and adenoma, and striated duct adenoma. Newly recognized malignant salivary gland tumours include: microsecretory adenocarcinoma, sclerosing microcytic adenocarcinoma, and mucinous adenocarcinoma.

Introduction And Importance: Multifocal nodular oncocytic hyperplasia (MNOH), alternatively known as Benign Nodular Oncocytosis, was first identified by Schwartz and Feldman in Cancer in 1969. It manifests as numerous nodular growths of oncocytic cells scattered within the salivary gland tissue; Bilateral and multifocal lesions in the parotid gland are rare occurrences. Among these, bilateral multifocal oncocytic lesions are even less common.

Article Synopsis
- - The Banff Working Group on Liver Allograft Pathology convened in September 2022 with a diverse group of experts to discuss long-term health monitoring of liver transplants, focusing on noninvasive methods and optimizing immunosuppression.
- - The group considered revising the rejection classification scheme to better identify and communicate late T cell-mediated rejection patterns and related changes, like nodular regenerative hyperplasia.
- - They emphasized the need for personalized immunosuppression strategies based on individual patient needs and proposed incorporating interface hepatitis and fibrosis staging into the rejection classification, which will undergo further testing and discussion before the next conference.
