From the files of the Department of Pathology of Kinshasa University Hospital, a retrospective study on salivary gland tumours in Congo (Zaire) had been carried out in order to determine their histological and epidemiological profile. Salivary gland tumours are rare in Congo, with a relative frequency of 1.8%. Pleomorphic adenoma (55.1%) and adenoid cystic carcinoma (15.9%) are the most common tumours. Parotid gland (36.6%) is the most frequent location of salivary gland tumours in this country. People aged between 30 and 39 years (19.9%) (Mean: 37.4 +/- 16.2 years) and females (M/F = 0.8/1) are most affected. No case of adenolymphoma is recorded in this series. |
