Oncocytoma of the salivary gland is a rare benign tumour of the salivary glands.

General

  • No risk of malignant transformation.
  • Rare ~20 reported in literature.[1]
  • Thought to be ~1% of all salivary gland tumours.
  • Typical age: 60s-80s.
  • Associated with radiation exposure.
  • Major salivary glands - usually parotid gland.[2]

Gross

  • Golden brown appearance.

Image

  • Salivary gland oncocytoma (WC/euthman)

Microscopic

Features:

  • Like oncocytomas elsewhere.
    • Eosinophilic cytoplasm (on H&E stain).
      • Due to increased number of mitochrondria.
    • Fine capillaries.
  • Architecture: solid sheets, trabeculae or duct-like structure.[2]

Notes:

  • May have clear cell change.
  • Multiple small incidental lesions = oncocytosis - not oncocytoma.
