Salivary gland canalicular adenoma is rare yet benign. It accounts for fewer than 1% of salivary tumors and is the third most common non-cancerous mass in the small salivary glands. A 45-year-old presented to the outpatient department with complaints of swelling in the left parotid region for the past 3 years. Examination revealed a firm swelling in the left parotid region. USG and MRI revealed features suggestive of pleomorphic adenoma. Superficial parotidectomy was planned but intra-operatively, the mass was seen between the two lobes of the parotid, which was removed, and on histopathological examination, it was diagnosed as canalicular adenoma. Post-operatively, the patient's condition is excellent.

Aims: Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) with a prominent trabecular/canalicular morphology has consistent HMGA2 protein expression, and association with HMGA2 fusions. We report our experience with this subtype, with emphasis on the carcinomas that can arise in this context.
Methods And Results: A retro- and prospective review (2013-2024) of major salivary gland tumours with prominent trabecular/canalicular morphology was performed.

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.

Article Synopsis
- - A retrospective study was conducted to analyze 10 new cases of canalicular adenoma (CAD), reviewing medical records and histological slides from 2014-2024.
- - The patients, primarily female with an average age of 61.2 years, presented mostly with solitary, asymptomatic nodules on the upper lip, and some experienced slight pain.
- - The study emphasized distinct microscopic features of CAD and the utility of specific immunohistochemical markers in distinguishing CAD from other types of salivary gland tumors.

Aims: Most salivary gland neoplasms are distinguished by specific recurrent gene fusions. Recently, a subset of pleomorphic adenomas (PAs) originated from the parotid gland harboring the HMGA2:WIF1 fusion was described with a canalicular adenoma-like morphology and a greater propensity for recurrence and carcinomatous transformation.
Methods And Results: This study delineates the clinicopathological attributes of 54 cases of PAs exhibiting HMGA2 alterations, predominantly characterized by the HMGA2:WIF1 fusion, alongside a comparative analysis of their morphological and immunohistochemical profiles.
