Risk stratification of salivary gland cytology utilizing the Milan system of classification

ConclusionThe ROM reported in our study was mostly concordant with ROM published by the MSRSGC. This classification is helpful for the management of categories; nondiagnostic, non ‐neoplastic, benign neoplasm, suspicious for malignancy and malignant. The management is not standardized for the category, salivary gland neoplasm of uncertain malignant potential, as clinical information plays an important role in planning surgical procedures at an individual basis. Further stud ies will need to be performed using this new classification to help define appropriate management and predict ROM more accurately.
