ObjectiveSialoblastoma is a rare salivary gland tumor mainly located in parotid. In this article, we aimed to review the clinical manifestations and treatments of sialoblastoma, especially to provide effective chemotherapy regimens to instruct internal medicine therapy for unresectable or recurrent tumors.MethodWe reported a 1-year old girl who presented a left-sided firm facial mass and subsequently diagnosed as sialoblastoma. Afterwards, we reviewed and analyzed relevant literatures.ResultsSixty-four cases of pediatric sialoblastoma were reviewed. Of them, surgical excision was the basic treatment, 17 cases received chemotherapy, and 15 cases got good response. Lung metastasis was reported in six patients, all of whom had good response to chemotherapy.ConclusionChemotherapy may play an important role in residual, extensive, metastatic and relapsed cases. In addition, lung metastasis was unlikely to exert a significant effect on prognosis.
