Malignant salivary gland neoplasms. Etiology.
Original language description
Although the etiology of salivary gland tumors is unknown, the involvement of environmental and genetic faktore has been suggested. Over the years, there has been some progress in clarifying specific causes of salivary gland cancer, and several risk factors have been identified. Compared with most other head and neck cancers, malignant salivary gland tumors have not been associated with smoking or excess alkohol intake. The possible risk factors include radiation exposure, hormones, exposure to severaloccupational risk factors, viral infections, and genetic predisposition. The best-known risk factor is radiation exposure as evident in atomic bomb survivors and in patients receiving therapeutic radiation.
