Description

Acinic cell carcinoma is an uncommon neoplasm of the salivary glands, accounting for approximately 2-4% of all parotid gland tumor. Their occurrence in minor salivary gland site is exceedingly rare.<BR>A case of acinic cell carcinoma arising in mucosal surface of upper lip was reported, and a review of literature was briefly carried out.<BR>A 44-year-old man was referred to our department, with a painless swelling on the right side of the upper lip. There was no regional lymphadenopathy. At the first examination, the tumor appeared as a mass of about 20×20mm in size, which was histopathologically diagnosed as acinic cell carcinoma.<BR>Under the general anesthesia, the tumor was resected with radical excision by intra-oral approach and reconstructed with splint thickness skin graft. No recurrence or metastasis has been observed after the operation.<BR>we surveyed 54 cases of this tumor of the minor salivary gland in Japanese literature during the period 1955 to 1991.<BR>In these reports, the tumor occurred most frequently in palate (19 cases), followed by retromolar region (9 cases), lip (7 cases), buccal mucosa (7 cases), and others (12 cases) . The tumor yielded a recurrence rate of 21.6 % in the literatures.
