Abstract
Introduction: Recurrent pleomorphic adenoma (PA) in the submandibular gland is a rare tumor that may be misdiagnosed as an inflammatory lesion. The imaging manifestations of the submandibular gland recurrent PA are unclear, with only three case reports reporting CT and MRI imaging, respectively. Our report is the first case report that comprehensively describes the imaging manifestations of recurrent PA in the submandibular gland.
Case presentation: A 28-year-old woman had a right submandibular gland pleomorphic adenoma that recurred 5 years after resection and gradually grew larger. She had no special discomfort and was diagnosed with a recurrence of pleomorphic adenoma. The patient underwent CT and MRI examinations and tumor resection, and postoperative pathology showed tumor recurrence.
Conclusion: This case report provides substantial and comprehensive CT and MRI data, which is conducive to the diagnosis of the recurrence of submandibular gland pleomorphic adenoma and the avoidance of misdiagnosis to the greatest extent possible.
