Congenital Salivary Gland Anlage Tumor: An Unusual Anterior Skull Base Mass in the Neonatal Period.

Jonathan E Martin1, Belachew Tessema, Boulos Beshai, Fabiola Balarezo.   

Abstract

Congenital salivary gland anlage tumor (SGAT) is a benign nasopharyngeal mass that presents with respiratory distress in infancy. Prior case reports have characterized SGAT as a lesion of the nasopharynx without intracranial extension. We report a unique case of SGAT extending through the anterior skull base and discuss the differential diagnosis and management of this unusual entity.
