[Sebaceous carcinoma of salivary gland. Report of two cases of infrequent location].

Sebaceous carcinoma is an infrequent tumor of tardy increase, locally aggressive, potentially recurrent, with natural propensity for metastasize, both loco-regional or remote (lymphogenous or hematogenus metastases). Principal sitting are the annexed glands to ocular sense (Zeis glands and specially Meibomian's). Its origin in salivary glands is exceedingly uncommon, only those arising in the parotid have been reported. Our contribution are 2 cases which source were the sublingual gland and a minor palatine salivary gland, respectively. The perusal of the literature has been negative: no one previous case of sebaceous carcinoma could be discovered in the literature.

[Malignant head and neck melanoma].

The general epidemiological, clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic characteristics of cutaneous malignant Melanoma of the head and neck, which are of interest for the general practitioner, are described. Particular emphasis is made on the several sites within this area and their prognostic implications.

[Squamous cell carcinoma of the face].

The main morphologic, diagnostic and therapeutic features of squamous cell carcinoma of the facial region are described. It occurs predominantly in exposed areas with preexisting actinic elastosis, keratosis, telangiectasies or fissurae. The primary lesion of squamous cell carcinoma more encountered is a firm erythematous nodule with poorly-defined margins and smooth, verrucous or papillomatous surface, frequently surrounded by satellite nodules and central ulceration. The indications of surgical excision, radiation therapy, and electrocoagulation or cryosurgery are discussed. Squamous cell carcinoma is more malignant than the basal cell variety and will metastatize to regional glands more rapidly.

[Metastatic parotid tumors. Review of 28 cases].

A series of 28 patients with tumors metastatic to the parotid gland are reported. The most frequent histologic types were squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma. Most primary tumors occurred in the head and neck. A review of similar cases published in the literature reveals the lack of uniform criteria for the appropriate therapeutic approach for metastatic parotid gland tumors.
