Resumen
KURI-GARCIA, Anuar et al. Salivary gland tumor incidence in adult patients in a tertiary hospital in Mexico from 2008 to 2019. Cir. cir. [online]. 2023, vol.91, n.4, pp.521-527. Epub 30-Oct-2023. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.21000414.
Objective:
To determine the incidence of salivary gland tumors in a population of a tertiary hospital in the State of Mexico, and to describe demographic variables.
Method:
An observational, cross-sectional and retrospective study of salivary gland tumors reported in a tertiary hospital in the State of Mexico in the period 2008-2019 is presented.
Results:
A prevalence of 0.049% was found. There was no difference between sex in the studied population. Benign salivary gland tumors were the most frequent (86.7%). The age range most affected was 51-60 years. The most frequently found tumor was the pleomorphic adenoma, followed by Warthin's tumor. There was 13.33% of sialolipomas, and one myoepithelioma. There were no cases of sublingual gland tumors or minor salivary glands.
Conclusion:
Tumors of the major salivary glands are infrequent tumors; population cases from a central Mexican state and their demographic characteristics are presented to contribute to the information found in local and international literature.
