ABSTRACT
Clear cell carcinoma is a rarely encountered low grade tumor arising from salivary gland. It is more commonly seen in women and at palates during fifth or sixth decades of life. Treatment is total surgical excision with negative margins. Here, we aimed to present a novel therapeutic approach with adding radiotherapy to surgery in a tumor localized at soft palate and to review literature.
Keywords: Adenocarcinoma, clear cell; salivary gland neoplasms; palate, soft
ÖZET
Clear Cell carcinoma tükrük bezinden köken alan düşük gradeli ender rastlanan bir tümördür. 5-6. Dekatlarda daha çok bayanlarda ve damak yerleşiminde görülür. Tedavisi negatif sınırlarla total cerrahi eksizyondur. Bu olgu sunumundaki amacımız 5. Dekatta yumuşak damak yerleşimli bir tümörün cerrahisi ve radyoterapi eklenerek yapılan farklı bir tedavi yaklaşımını sunmak ve konuyla ilgili mevcut literatürü yeniden gözden geçirmekti.
