Overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of salivary gland tumors include avoiding some of the possible risk factors such as tobacco, and excess alcohol use.
Screening
- As most of the causes of salivary gland cancers are unknown, we don’t yet know how to prevent most of them.
- Avoiding some of the possible risk factors such as excess alcohol use and tobacco might slightly lower the likelihood of developing salivary gland cancer. However, it is unclear that whether avoiding these factors can help reduce the risk of other, more common cancers, as well as many other diseases.
- For people who work in certain industries linked with an increased risk of salivary gland cancer such as leather industry, pesticides, and some industrial solvents, taking precautions to protect themselves might help lower their risk of salivary gland cancer. As salivary gland cancers behaves differently in every person, a standard follow-up schedule would not work for everyone.
