Salivary gland tumours are a relatively rare and morphologically diverse group of lesions. Although most clinicians and pathologists will have encountered the more common benign neoplasms, few have experience full range of salivary gland cancers, which are best managed in specialist centres. The classification of these lesions is complex, encompassing nearly 40 different entities, but precise classification and terminology is essential for an accurate diagnosis and for the allocation of tumors to prognostic groups. In general, salivary gland tumors are pathologically diagnosed according to the WHO classification, in which 10 and 23 specific benign and malignant epithelial tumour entities have been listed, respectively. Although this classification is complex, it has advantages with regard to the prognostic and therapeutic aspects, because the biological behaviour of each tumour type is considerably different. Approximately 65% of all salivary gland are classified as benign mixed tumors. Etiological factors for salivary gland tumors are not well understood.
