Overview
Salivary gland tumors are abnormal masses of cells that develop in the salivary glands, located in the mouth and throat. They can be either benign, meaning they are not cancerous, or malignant, meaning they are cancerous. Benign salivary gland tumors can cause swelling and discomfort in the mouth, while malignant tumors have the potential to spread to other areas of the body. Treatment for salivary gland tumors may include surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy depending on the type, size, and location of the tumor. Early diagnosis and treatment is important as salivary gland tumors can become more serious over time.
