Only 10% of salivary tumours arise in the submandibular gland and 60% of these will be pleomorphic adenomas. The remaining 40% will be malignant. Except in advanced malignancy, the tumours rarely extend beyond the capsule of the gland and so excision of the submandibular gland is the definitive surgical treatment. For advanced malignant tumours with spread beyond the capsule, more radical clearance of the submandibular triangle is required, often in continuity with a neck dissection. When a pre-operative diagnosis of a benign tumour can be reasonably and confidently established by computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration cytology or preferably fine needle core biopsy and the tumour is in the superficial part of the submandibular gland partial excision of the gland is possible. This has the merit of preserving gland function and reduces the risk of damage to the lingual and hypoglossal nerves. 441 442 443 445 447 448 449 450 451 452 453 There are only two indications for the removal of the sublingual gland.
