Brief Summary

Nano-based diagnostic tool can provide promising highly sensitive, specific biomarker for early detection and treatment of salivary gland tumours compared to non-conjugated biomarkers and in turn impr...

Detailed Description

Cancer stem cells form a small subset of highly tumorigenic cells within the bulk of the tumours which mainly responsible for initiation, invasion, rapid growth, metastasis and therapeutic resistance ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Benign PA of major and minor salivary glands (PA group),
  • CXPA of major and minor salivary glands (CXPA group).
  • Border of excision biopsy of mucocele in the lip mucosa of healthy individuals used as normal controls (Control group).
  • Surgical excision of tumors with no preoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy. For parotid tumours partial or total parotidectomy, Surgery was performed with or without facial nerve preservation and the later was carried out commonly when the nerve was involved by tumour. For tumours in the other glands, complete surgical excision with the involved gland and the suspicious adjacent structures was performed.

Exclusion

  • All epithelial origin salivary gland tumours other than PA and CXPA.
  • All mesenchymal origin salivary gland tumours.
  • All inflammatory and cystic lesions of salivary glands.
  • Metastasis in salivary glands.
  • Patients received preoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
