Two Cases of Acinic Cell Carcinoma of Parotid Gland – Rare Papillary Cystic Variant: One Unusual Presentation in Older Male Patient
ACCs are usually low grade, well‐differentiated neoplasms that constitute 2.5%–4% of parotid gland tumors.[1] The mean age of occurrence is in the fifth decade, but the papillary cystic variant is reported to occur in younger patients compared to the classic type. The most favored site is the parotid (86%), occasionally the submaxillary gland, minor salivary glands.[1] ACC is a neoplastic growt...

متن کاملAcinic Cell Carcinoma of the Parotid Gland with Four Morphological Features
Acinic cell carcinoma arising in salivary glands is a rare tumor, accounting for 2% to 5% of the primary neoplasms of the parotid gland. When these tumors are well-differentiated, the neoplasia has innocuous aspect, due to the similarity to normal parotid tissue. This makes the diagnosis difficult. Initially the malignancy of this tumor was uncertain; however, recent studies have declared it as...
