Abstract:
Purpose To investigate clinicopathological features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of non-sebaceous lymphadenoma of the parotid gland. Methods The histopathological morphology, immunohistochemical profiles and clinicopathological features were an-alyzed in two cases of NSL, along with review the related literatures. Results Two patients were female adults. Microscopically, The tumor was a well-circumscribed mass surrounded by a fibrous capsule of variable thickness and comprised a mixture of proliferating epi-thelium accompanied by a prominent lymphoid component, reactive lymphoid follicles were found in lymphoid stroma. The epithelial component took the form of anastomosing trabeculae, glands, solid basaloid islands or cyst formation. The cysts and glands were lined with luminal cells and abluminal cells, filled with eosinophilic secretions with occasional histiocytes. The epithelial cell was no seba-ceous differentiation, significant cytological atypia and mitotic activity. A fibrous capsule with subcapsular sinus was seen around the mass in one case. Immunohistochemically, the abluminal cells were positive for p63, CK34βE12 and CK5/6, while the epithelial cells were positive for CK(AE1/AE3) and CK7. Conclusion NSL is a very rare benign of salivary gland, which occuring in the lymph node lesions are less reported, knowledge of the wide histological spectrum of this rare tumor is important in order to avoid misdiagno-sis, particularly as malignant tumor.
