Primary salivary gland-type tumors of the tracheobronchial tree diagnosed by transbronchial fine needle aspiration: Clinical and cytomorphologic features with histopathologic correlation.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Primary salivary gland-type tumors of the tracheobronchial tree are rare; their cytologic features have been seldom reported. We aim to describe the clinical and cytomorphologic features of tracheobronchial salivary gland-type tumors diagnosed by transbronchial fine needle aspiration (TBNA) at our institution, and correlate the findings with a corresponding surgical specimen. METHODS:We searched our laboratory information system to identify patients with a primary salivary gland-type neoplasm of the tracheobronchial tree diagnosed by TBNA and with a corresponding surgical pathology specimen, over 10 years. RESULTS:The study cohort consisted of 11 patients (7F/4M; mean age 58 years, range 41-78). Presenting symptoms included hemoptysis (4), cough (3), dyspnea (1), stridor (1), and shoulder pain (1). Most had a tracheal mass (5), while 3 had mainstem bronchi masses and 3 had lung masses. Radiographically, the masses were lobulated, rounded, or polypoid in six patients. All underwent TBNA with a 21- or 22-gauge needle and endobronchial biopsy. The most frequent diagnosis was adenoid cystic carcinoma (4/11, 36%), followed by mucoepidermoid carcinoma (3/11, 27%), epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (2/11, 18%), oncocytoma (1/11, 9%), and hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma, salivary gland type (1/11, 9%). The surgical pathology specimens confirmed the diagnosis in all cases. CONCLUSIONS:To our knowledge, this is one of the largest cytomorphologic studies of primary salivary gland tumors of the tracheobronchial tree in the literature. Salivary gland tumors of the tracheobronchial tree are rare, and recognizing cytomorphologic changes that occur in salivary gland-type tumors is important for establishing a definitive diagnosis.
