| Abstract: | Non-neoplastic conditions of the salivary glands range from inflammatory processes to sialadenosis to reactive lymph nodes. Sialadenitis is the most common non-neoplastic condition and includes acute or chronic sialadenitis as well as granulomatous disease. The risk of malignancy (ROM) for aspirates of “Non-Neoplastic” salivary gland lesions is approximately 11%. While non-neoplastic conditions of salivary glands can occasionally mimic a neoplasm leading to a false positive diagnosis, the most problematic aspect is the possibility of a false negative diagnosis due to inadequate sampling. © American Society of Cytopathology 2023. |
