Striated Duct Adenoma: A Case Report and a Scoping Review.

Introduction: Striated duct adenoma (SDA) is a rare benign salivary gland tumor with a recently described genetic signature. Recurrent oncogenic mutations affecting the IDH2 gene differentiate SDA from its primary differential diagnosis of canalicular adenoma. Here, we report a case of SDA affecting the parotid gland with IDH1/2 mutation-specific immunohistochemical positivity. Additionally, we provide a scoping review developed according to the Cochrane Methodology and reported following the Joana Briggs Institute (JBI) checklist to synthesize all previously published cases of SDA. The review protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework (OSF) platform ( https://osf.io/7mztg ). The searches were performed using Medline, Embase, Web of Science, and LILACS, with no date or language limit. Studies were evaluated for eligibility, extracted, and compiled in a narrative form. Seven studies with 20 patients with SDA, including ours, were analyzed. The tumors mainly affected the parotid gland (13/20) in patients with a mean age of 62 years and did not display sex predilection. Swelling was the leading clinical symptom. The mean follow-up duration was 26 months with no recurrence or metastasis after resection.

Conclusion: Awareness of the clinicopathological features and the use of IDH1/2 mutation-specific immunohistochemistry are pivotal for the consistent identification of SDA, and assessment for true biological potential will require increased follow-up and scrutiny.
