• sclerosing polycystic adenosis
  29 March

  Sclerosing polycystic adenosis (SPA) is a rare benign neoplasm of the salivary gland which resembles the fibrocystic disease of the breast clinically as well as morphologically.
  Recognition of this benign entity is important since the differential diagnosis includes other more common benign and malignant salivary gland neoplasm particularly mucoepidermoid carcinoma and other tumors with cystic and oncocytic features.

• low-grade cribriform cystadenocarcinoma
  11 January

  LGCCC
  Definition: Low-grade cribriform cystadenocarcinoma (LGCCC) is a recently described rare tumor of salivary gland which exhibits clinically indolent behavior.
  This tumor predominantly consists of intraductal components and frequently exhibits papillary-cystic or cribriform proliferation pattern.
  IHC
  Immunohistochemically, the luminal tumor cells show diffuse expression of CK and S100.
  p63 and smooth muscle actin display a continuous rim of myoepithelial cells around all tumor (...)

• saliva
  28 December 2016

  WKP
  Saliva is a watery substance formed in the mouths of animals, secreted by the salivary glands.
  Human saliva comprises 99.5% mostly water, plus electrolytes, mucus, white blood cells, epithelial cells (which can be used to extract DNA), glycoproteins, enzymes (such as amylase and lipase), antimicrobial agents such as secretory IgA and lysozyme.
  The enzymes found in saliva are essential in beginning the process of digestion of dietary starches and fats. These enzymes also play a role (...)
