Learning that a child may have cancer is extremely challenging for any parent. Though rare, salivary gland cancer can occur in children and requires specialized care. These glands, located around the mouth and throat, produce saliva, and tumors—benign or malignant—can develop in any of them. Recognizing symptoms early and seeking prompt evaluation is essential. At American Oncology Institute (AOI), our multidisciplinary team provides expert salivary gland cancer treatment, combining advanced technology and international protocols to support children and their families.
