A definitive diagnosis of salivary gland tumors is extremely difficult to make without evaluating the entire tumor and conducting immunohistochemical examinations. In this study, we aimed to examine and compare the expression patterns of the tumor protein (TP) D52 family, including TPD52, TPD53, and TPD54, in salivary gland tumor cells by using immunohistochemical staining. Among over 30 benign and malignant salivary gland tumors with extensive and diverse morphological features and overlapping histological similarities, we selected Warthin’s tumor and pleomorphic adenoma to represent benign salivary gland tumors and mucoepidermoid carcinoma to represent malignant ones. Tumor samples were fixed in 10% buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin. Then, immunohistochemical staining was performed using antibodies against TPD52, TPD53, and TPD54. Neither the benign salivary gland tumors nor mucoepidermoid carcinoma stained for TPD52. However, the intensity of TPD53 and TPD54 staining was found to be low in the benign salivary gland tumors and high in mucoepidermoid carcinoma. TPD54 may serve as a pathological indicator of benign salivary gland tumors and mucoepidermoid carcinoma.

The Onodi cell is a pneumatized posterior ethmoid cell that lies on the sphenoid sinus and is closely related to the optic canal. A rare case of a patient who was relieved from longterm severe visual impairment caused by mucocele in the Onodi cell is presented herein. An 80-year-old man was referred to the hospital by an ophthalmologist with a complaint of blurred vision in the right eye for a couple of months. A computed tomography scan demonstrated a cystic lesion occupying the right posterior ethmoid sinus, which suggested the Onodi cell. In addition, a bone defect of the optic canal was present. Ophthalmologic examination showed no papilledema. However, severe visual impairment and narrowing of the visual field in the right eye were noted. Surgical treatment using the endoscopic endonasal approach was performed under general anesthesia. Purulent discharge oozed out when the cystic lesion in the right posterior ethmoid sinus was opened. His visual impairment and severe visual field contraction gradually improved after surgery. In this case, the patient’s severe visual impairment improved although a couple of months had passed before treatment. Preoperative fundus examination showed no optic nerve atrophy or inflammatory optic neuropathy in the right eye, counting fingers and visual acuity was considered to have improved.
