Overview
There are no well established causes for pleomorphic adenoma. However some clonal chromosomal abnormalities with aberrations involving 8q12 and 12q15 have been described. Simian virus(SV40) is thought to play a role either in the onset or progression of the tumor.
Causes
- There are no established causes for the development of pleomorphic adenoma.
- However some clonal chromosomal abnormalities with aberrations involving 8q12 and 12q15 have been described.[1]
- Oncogenic simian virus(SV40) may play a role in the onset or progression of pleomorphic adenoma.[2]
