Carcinomas of the submandibular and sublingual glands. 1986

J G Batsakis

Neoplasms of the submandibular and sublingual salivary glands are much less numerous than those of the parotid gland, but they are more often malignant: nearly 50% for the submandibular and 80% for the sublingual glands. A submandibular gland origin also imparts to a given carcinoma a higher degree of biologic malignancy than is expressed by similar tumors in the parotid gland.
