about 6 days ago Tissues that are similar to salivary glands appear all around the body – including in the lining of the trachea – the tube that carries air in and out of the lungs. Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma (ACC) is the most common form of salivary gland-type tracheal cancer - although cancer of the trachea is rare, with only one in a thousand cancer cases being found there. Other salivary gland-type cancers, including Acinic Cell Carcinoma (AcCC) and Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma (MEC), can also present in the trachea. The trachea is between 10 and 15cm long and 2 to 3cm in diameter. It runs from the back of the throat (where it is attached to the bottom of the larynx or voice box) to the carina, where it splits in two, opening out into the left and right primary bronchi. These bronchi then go on to branch into a series of smaller airways that run throughout the lungs. Secretory glands with tissue very similar to that present in salivary glands can be found all across the inner surface of the trachea. They play an important role in protecting the lining of the airway, humidifying the air we breathe in and keeping the lungs healthy. The secretions they produce trap microorganisms, dust and allergens like pollen, which can then be swept back up the airway by tiny hairs called cilia. Cancers such as ACC in the trachea are often misdiagnosed as other respiratory complaints, including asthma and COPD, as breathlessness is one of the key early symptoms. You can listen to Barry and Sarah, two SGCUK members with ACC in the trachea, talk about their diagnosis and treatment on the stories section of our website. #Trachea #AdenoidCysticCarcinoma #AcinicCellCarcinoma #MucoepidermoidCarcinoma #SalivaryGlandCancer @SGCancerUK
It was great to talk and share information about these rare cancers and their unmet needs. Thank you for the support in spreading awareness and thereby contributing to helping us push forwards for better outcomes for patients. @sgcanceruk
about 9 days ago This week is London Global Cancer Week. LGCW aims to improve cancer outcomes by: ✅ encouraging collaboration ✅ raising awareness ✅ convening LGCW provides a space for a variety of speakers and organisations to host presentations on interesting topics around cancer... "Cancer has become a leading cause of death worldwide accounting globally for nearly one in six deaths (nearly 10 million deaths in 2020). The majority of cancer deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). Cancer disproportionately affects people in LMICs where there is a higher chance of late presentation and often limited access to preventative strategies, diagnostics, treatment and palliative care."

At the EURACAN board meeting in Warsaw last week, we were delighted to present the challenges of Salivary Gland Cancer patients with clinicians, researchers and other ePAGs (Patient Advocacy Groups).

We share many challenges with other rare cancers and we all discussed how we can continue to move forwards together and address the unmet needs.

Emma Kinloch](urn:li:person:EFKjHa5aqr) represented Salivary Gland Cancer UK and the Associazione Italiana Laryngectomizzati (AILAR) on a panel in Warsaw, and was joined in person by @[Eva-Maria Strömsholm
and Laura Urena. Kathy Oliver, Ariane Weinman and other ePAGs joined virtually.

It is fantastic to see EURACAN continue to grow and expand. Working across borders is key to moving things forward for rare cancers. It was great to have colleagues from South America and Japan, as well as all over Europe and the UK, in the same room.

All discussions over the two days were lively, engaging and fruitful. There is alot of work to do and it is wonderful to have this group committed to doing it.

In September we attended a workshop on 'Innovation and Access in RareCancers' hosted by the Cancer Drug Development Forum (CDDF) and the European Organisation for the Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC).

Multiple stakeholders from accross the world came together in Amsterdam and online to share perspectives on the current state of play, existing challenges, ongoing collaborations and unmet needs. Discussions included innovative trial designs and potential solutions to improve patient access.

It was fantastic to have regulators, industry, clinicians, researchers and patient advocates all in the same room. It was a friendly, collaborative meeting and a fantastic opporunity to meet those with similar goals from all around the world.

Thanks to CDDF, EORTC and all the speakers for such fantastic presentations and discussions.

The spine gives your body structure, and helps you to sit, stand, walk, twist and bend. It also protects the nerves that travel through its centre in the spinal cord.

Metastases (secondary cancer growths) can occur in the bone of the spine in salivary gland cancers - although it's important to note many patients do not go on to develop such secondary growths.

Symptoms of metastasis in the spine can include back pain and kyphosis (curvature of the spine which causes the back to look more rounded than usual).

However, bone metastases can be asymptomatic, especially in the earlier stages, and so they are often only discovered incidentally during routine scans.

You can listen to Alison C talk about her diagnosis and treatment for ACC spine metastases here. (Begins at 2.50 in the interview.)

The spine is made up of:

• Vertebrae: 33 stacked, small bones that form the spinal canal.

• Intervertebral disks: flat, round cushions with a gel-like centre that sit between the vertebrae acting as the spine’s shock absorber.

• Facet joints: which hold the vertebrae together. Their cartilage allows the bones to slide against each other so we can twist and turn.

• The spinal cord: the group of nerves that travel through the spinal canal. Messages are sent between the brain and muscles via 31 pairs of nerves that branch out through openings in the vertebrae.

• Soft tissue: Ligaments, tendons and muscles, which help connect and support the vertebrae and aid movement.

The spine starts at the base of the skull, and ends at the tailbone, which is part of the pelvis. It is not straight, but curves to form an S shape. This helps the spine to absorb shocks and avoid injury.

It’s split into five sections:

• Cervical spine (neck): seven vertebrae, that allow you to move your head.

• Thoracic spine (middle back): 12 vertebrae which are attached to your ribs.

• Lumbar spine (lower back): five vertebrae that support the upper parts of your spine, connect to your pelvis and bear most of your body’s weight, as well as the stress of lifting.

• Sacrum: five vertebrae that are fused together into a triangle-shaped bone and cannot move independently. It connects to your hips.

• Coccyx: Four fused vertebrae to which pelvic floor muscles and ligaments are attached.

Let’s come together to provide hope, strength, and healing for all those affected by this rare disease. #NeverForgotten #CancerCommunity #CancerSupportGroup #HopeAndHealing @SGCancerUK
Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma (MEC) is the most common salivary gland cancer in adults and children.

The cancer affects more women than men and is most likely to develop in the 40s or 50s.

The major salivary glands are responsible for producing approximately 95% of saliva and include the parotid (just below and in front of each ear), the submandibular (below the jaws) and the sublingual glands (under the tongue).

Minor salivary glands produce the remaining saliva and can be found in almost any part of the mouth.

Most MECs form in the parotid gland, although they can also develop in the submandibular and minor salivary glands.

MEC has been reported at distant sites including the breast, lungs, and thyroid.

MEC typically form a slow-growing, painless lump below the ears, and common symptoms include weakness or twitching in the face, pain or tenderness, ear discharge, trouble swallowing and difficulty opening the mouth.

You can find more resources and further information on Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma (MEC) & Warthin-like MEC research and treatment on our website.

about a month ago 🦋 Small symptoms can sometimes mean something significant. Unexplained swelling in the face, pain in the mouth, or even a small lump might not seem serious, but they could be early signs of salivary gland cancer. Don’t ignore the signals your body is sending. Acting early can make a crucial difference in treatment outcomes. If you notice anything unusual, speak to your doctor, and encourage others to do the same. Let’s prioritise early detection to give everyone the best chance of successful treatment. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #StayInformed #ListenToYourBody @SGCancerUK
Misdiagnosis is extremely common for salivary gland cancer because they are rare and have no risk profile.

Remember that small symptoms can sometimes mean something significant...
