Abstract
Cytogenetically, there would seem to be no clear differences in PAs arising from the major salivary glands versus the MSGs. It is unknown whether the underlying tumorigenesis and chromosomal aberrations of PAs from major salivary glands and MSGs are similar, although the proportion of malignant tumors arising from the MSGs is much larger compared with the parotid. Further studies are needed in this area.
