A heterogeneous community of pathologies includes around 3__ampersandsignndash;10 % of carcinomas of the head and neck and just 0.5 % of all malignant tumours suit these forms. Although most other cancers of the head and neck are closely linked to smoking and alcohol, the salivary glands do not play a role in these. Some studies have found that a diet rich in vitamin C and low in cholesterol can help prevent salivary cancer of the gland. An increased risk of salivary gland cancers was found to be associated with HIV infection. Objective: To identify different salivary gland histomorphological trends tomours, age, frequency and distribution of sites. Material __ampersandsignamp; Methods: Present study was at Chandulal Chandrakar Memorial Medical College and hospital. A total of 63 samples were studied. Demographic information was collected with information on location of tumor and size of tumor was determined for each salivary gland tumor. In both major and minor glands of malignant salivary gland tomours, frequency of benign and malignant tumor was determined. Results: There were total 23 malignant tumor and 40 benign tomours. It has been observed that out of total 23 malignant tomours, 17(73.9%) were parotid glands, 4(17.4%) were submandibular glands while 2(8.7%) were minor salivary gland. Among mucoepidermoid carcinoma, the parotid gland was found to be most common (N=8, 34.8%). Among all 40 benign tumours, 1(2.5%) was minor salivary gland, 5(12.5%) were submandibular gland and 34(85%) parotid glands. In warthins tumour (N=9, 22.5%) and pleomorphic adenoma (N=13, 32.5%) parotid gland was more frequent compared to minor salivary gland and submandibular gland. Conclusion: The most common carcinoma of mucoepidermoid is widely known malignant tumour of the parotid and salivary glands is a common site to the same. The histopathological checkup is mandatory for salivary gland tumour diagnosis as they occur to have a vast range of morphological patterns.&#13;
