Picture of Pleomorphic Adenoma of the Submandibular Gland. ... Pleomorphic Adenoma of the Submandibular (submaxillary) Gland. These tumors are benign. They are removed very carefully, so as not to injure the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve which courses in the deep cervical fascia covering the...

OBJECTIVES: Capsular ruptures play a major role in recurrences of parotid pleomorphic adenomas. ... Hypocellular (stroma rich) pleomorphic adenoma was reported in 56%, hypercellular pleomorphic adenoma was reported in 29% and "classic" in 15%. Thinness of capsule was significantly related to hypocellularity.

RESULTS: Neural cell adhesion molecule was expressed in all cases of pleomorphic adenoma, strongly labelling the luminal cells of the double-layered ductform structures. This expression was weaker in neoplastic myoepithelial cells and progressively diminished at a distance from the luminal cells.
