Overview
Acinic cell carcinoma is a head and neck tumor happening in the salivary glands. If a patient was observed with related signs, the tumor must be classified as a benign or invasive by the capsule being intact. Differential diagnosis of a malignant tumor in salivary gland is made after the incision and by histology features which will provide a good chemotherapy regimen for so called patients.
Differentiating acinic cell carcinoma from other Diseases
Differentiating acinic cell carcinoma from other diseases on the basis of histology findings
On the basis of histologist findings acinic cell carcinoma must be differentiated from other salivary and head and neck masses such as salivary metastasis of thyroid carcinoma, salivary oncocytoma, mucoepidermoid carcinoma, Mammary analog secretory carcinoma.[1][2]
| Histological findings | ||
|---|---|---|
| Diseases | Overlapping features | Distinguishing features |
| Salivary metastasis of thyroid carcinoma[3] | Empty appearance, grooves, pseudoinclusions | Immunohistochemistry (Thyroglobulin) |
| salivary oncocytoma[4] | Eosinophilic, non-serous cells | Hematoxylin |
| mucoepidermoid carcinoma[5] | Microcystic, and follicula, inconspicuous mucous/squamoid cells, eosinophilic | Immunohistochemistry for p63 |
| Mammary analoge secretory carcinoma[6] | Histologically similar | Lack of PAS-positive secretory granules, Vimentin positive, Adipophilin positive |
