Cytopathology of a Newly Described Salivary Gland Neoplasm: A Case Report of Microsecretory Adenocarcinoma Presenting in the Parotid Gland
MSA is a rare neoplasm and should be considered in the cytological differential diagnosis of low-grade salivary gland neoplasms. Its unique cytomorphological features should raise the possibility of MSA in salivary gland FNABs. The diagnosis can be established on cellular cell block preparations using immunohistochemistry and FISH or PCR.
