摘要
Salivary gland neoplasms are rare and represent a diverse group of head and neck tumors. Their diagnosis in limited cellularity specimens can be challenging as many of these have overlapping clinical, radiological presentation, and pathologic features. Fine needle aspiration and/or core biopsies are more of a norm than rarity to be performed preoperatively to provide invaluable information that can guide clinical management including surgery. Even though these limited specimens may not always provide a definitive diagnosis; they have high sensitivity in confirming primary neoplasia, assessing the tumor grade, and ruling out non-surgical disease. An algorithmic pattern based approach can help narrow the differential diagnosis; leading to a definitive diagnosis with the help of specific ancillary studies.
