Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Comparison between Ultrasound-Guided Ethanol Sclerotherapy (UGES) \& surgical excision in management of warthin tumor of parotid gland.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Warthin tumor (also known as cystadenolymphoma), is a benign and frequent salivary gland neoplasm.

It represents about 2% to 15% of all primary epithelial tumors of the parotid gland.

Warthin tumor is histologically characterized by a dense lymphoid stroma and a double layer of oncocytic epithelium with a papillary and cystic architectural pattern.

Its etiology: remains controversial. Incidence: It is the second most frequent benign neoplasm of the salivary glands after pleomorphic adenoma. Pathophysiology: Initially, Hildebrand proposed that the lesion may be remnants of the branchial pouches and a variant of the lateral cervical cyst. Later, Albrech and Artz proposed the heterotropic origin of Warthin tumor from the neoplastic proliferation of salivary gland ducts present within intra- or para-parotid nodes. Histopathology: Grossly, Warthin tumor is a well-circumscribed spherical to oval mass. On cut section, there are solid areas and multiple cysts with papillary projections.

Cytology: Smears characteristically show oncocytic epithelial cells without atypia admixed with polymorphous lymphocytes and cellular debris.

Microscopic Findings: Warthin tumors are composed of varying proportions of papillary- cystic structures lined by oncocytic epithelial cells and a lymphoid stroma with germinal centers.

Clinically, Warthin tumor presents as a rounded or an ovoid nodular painless, slow-growing, fluctuant to firm at palpation. It can be unilateral, bilateral, or multicentric and is asymptomatic in 90% of cases.

Prognosis: Warthin's tumor has a favorable prognosis and almost never recurs. Malignant degeneration of Warthin tumor is very rare.

Complications:

Local Recurrence; The local recurrence rate is low; when recurrence does occur, it is probably due to multifocal tumors or inadequate excision.

Malignant Transformation; Malignant transformation in a Warthin tumor is extremely rare. The most frequent histological types of malignant transformation in a Warthin tumor are mucoepidermoid carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma, oncocytic adenocarcinoma, and adenocarcinoma.
