Comparative Study
The radiological findings of adenolymphomas (Warthin's tumor) treated in six hospitals between 1985 and 1994 were compared with the operative and histological findings and the usefulness of the radiological examinations was evaluated. The total number of patients was 72. The mean age was 61.8 years; 61 were males and 11 were females. All tumors developed in the parotid gland. Tc-99m-pertechnetate salivary gland scanning was performed in 13 patients and an increased uptake of the isotope was observed in only six patients. Even if Tc-99m-pertechnetate salivary gland scanning does not reveal intense accumulation, this tumor should not be ruled out. By computed tomography (CT), ultrasonography (US), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the margin of all tumors was evident; however, the contents of the tumor varied. The contents and multiplicity of the tumors were well demonstrated by MRI, which was found to be the most accurate imaging modality.

In order to study the changing clinical pattern, diagnosis and surgical treatment of adenolymphoma, the records of all 57 patients with a confirmed histological diagnosis, made at Bristol Royal Infirmary between 1951 and 1984, were reviewed; in 3 patients (5 per cent) bilateral lesions had been found. No characteristics emerged in a review of the history and clinical examination which would have enabled a correct preoperative diagnosis to be made. During the period of study the incidence of adenolymphoma increased 24-fold. (Parotid pleomorphic salivary adenomas increased in incidence by only 42 per cent over the same period). Before 1965 all patients were men; between 1965 and 1975 the male to female ratio was 3:1; between 1975 and 1985, 1.6:1. Of the 48 patients who had a relevant history taken 45 were smokers (93.8 per cent). It is postulated that tobacco consumption is important in the development of adenolymphoma, and has produced the changes in incidence and sex ratio. Fine needle aspiration biopsy cytology (FNAB) afforded the only method of achieving a pre-operative diagnosis. This was successful in 64.7 per cent. Superficial parotidectomy induced a 43 per cent incidence of facial nerve neurapraxia. Controlled enucleation reduced this to 8 per cent. Enucleation is the procedure of choice for adenolymphoma but can only be employed with confidence if an exact pre-operative diagnosis is made.

Review
Warthin's tumour (WT) is a benign epithelial salivary tumour, one type of salivary adenoma. Histologically, WT is structured of two components, epithelial tissue that often lines cystic formations and lymphoid tissue in the tumour stroma. FNA is a reliable diagnostic approach in the diagnosis of salivary gland lesions allowing a highly accurate categorization of benign tumour-like lesions, benign tumours and malignant tumours. In the proposed Milan reporting system of salivary gland lesions, WT is categorized in the IVA group of benign neoplasms. Accurate cytological diagnosis is straightforward when three characteristic components are present: oncocytes, either isolated or associated in clusters, lymphocytes and lymphoid cells and often an inflammatory/necrotic-like substance. Also, specific features of scintigraphy and radiological imaging contribute to the diagnosis of WT. WT is categorized according to Seifert G. et al in 4 types, depending on the proportions of the epithelial component and lymphoid stroma. Differential cytopathological and pathohistological diagnosis include other salivary gland lesions with lymphoid, oncocytic epithelial and cystic components. In some cases, such as the metaplastic WT variant, there are additional cytopathological and histological diagnostic difficulties. Moreover, bilateral, multicentric or multiple and infrequently seen extra-salivary localizations of WT are associated with further cytopathological diagnostic difficulties. Also, a rare possibility of malignant transformation of the epithelial or lymphoid component of WT as well as possible association with other primary tumours remains a challenge in accurate cytopathological and histological diagnosis of WT.
