Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Sialoblastoma is the most common epithelial tumor of the salivary gland. We report a case of congenital sialoblastoma arising in a minor salivary gland of the buccal mucosa of a male infant. After radiologic evaluation, an incisional biopsy was performed and then the mass was excised en bloc. Histologic features were both favorable and unfavorable. However, there was no recurrence for 5 months. In spite of a reported histologic grading system, the clinical course of isolated sialoblastoma is considered unpredictable. More published case reports of this rare tumor may enable histologic and clinical correlation in order to accurately predict prognosis.
