Abstract
THIS report summarizes the experience with tumors of salivary-gland origin observed at the Massachusetts General Hospital from 1930 to 1941, inclusive, and at the Pondville State Cancer Hospital from 1927 to 1941, inclusive. Table 1 presents the distribution of the cases.The relative frequency of carcinoma and mixed tumors of the parotid and submaxillary salivary glands is unusually high in this series of cases as shown in Table 1. This is due to the fact that more carcinomas than mixed tumors of the parotid and submaxillary salivary glands were observed at the Pondville State Cancer Hospital during the period studied.
