Salivary Gland Cytopathology

Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) represents an important step in the diagnosis of salivary gland masses at institutions worldwide. Salivary gland FNA is reliable at distinguishing neoplastic from non-neoplastic conditions, which may determine the need for surgical management. Still, there has historically been poor interobserver agreement (IOA) in the further classification of cases, particularly indeterminate ones. Moreover, the sensitivity and specificity of salivary gland FNAC for diagnosing malignancy has historically shown wide heterogeneity across institutions. The Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) was established with the goal of addressing these issues by creating a standardized and reproducible system for the classification of salivary gland FNAC.
