Overview
Pleomorphic adenoma can be classified into 4 subgroups on the basis of histology appearance and stromal content into 4 groups. Subgroup 1, subgroup 2, subgroup 3, subgroup 4. It can also be classified based upon the component that predominates into 3 types, cellular, stroma rich, and mixed type.
Classification
- Pleomorphic adenoma can be classified based on the stromal content of the tumor into the following subgroups.[1]
- Subgroup 1 is the classical pleomorphic adenoma with a stroma content of 30-50%
- subgroup 2 has a stroma content of 80%
- subgroup 3 has a poor stroma content of 20-30% or less and an epithelial differentiation similar to subgroup 1
- subgroup 4 has also a poor stroma content (6%) with a relatively monomorphic epithelial structure.
- Depending upon which component predominates pleomorphic adenoma can also be classified into:[2]
- Cellular(either epithelial or myoepithelial cell rich)
- Stroma-rich
- Mixed type or classic
