3 POLYMORPHOUS LOW GRADE ADENOCARCINOMA (PLGA) ADENOID CYSTIC CARCINOMA (ACC) Originally coined by Evans and Batsakis Almost exclusively minor salivary (palate 60-80%) Recurrences in 1/3 of patients 0-17% nodal metastasis rate Distant metastases and deaths from disease rare Historically confused with ACC Subgroup (mostly base of tongue) now considered by many as Cribriform Adeno of (+/- minor) 13 Salivary Gland (CASG) (or other synonyms) Biphasic Salivary Gland Tumor (Ducts surrounded by myoepithelial cells) Tubular, Cribriform and Solid growth patterns Slow but relentless progression 5 year survival = 75-80% 15 year survival = <15% 14 SIMILAR GROWTH PATTERNS DIFFERENT CYTONUCLEAR FEATURES AND PHENOTYPE SIMILARITIES Border Growth Patterns MORPHOLOGIC DISTINCTION PLGA/CASG NOT BIPHASIC Ovoid vesicular (classic PLGA) to clear (CASG pattern) CASG pattern also has more of a papillary glomeruloid growth ACC BIPHASIC Angulated hyperchromatic nuclei Stromal clefting 15 PLGA ACC BOTH SHOW INFILTRATIVE BORDERS 16 PLGA ACC SHARED TUBULAR GROWTH 17 PLGA ACC SHARED CRIBRIFORM GROWTH 18 3

BASAL CELL ADENOMA (BCA, HISTORICALLY MONOMORPHIC ADENOMA) Age 5 th decade, F:M 2:1 Parotid>>>submandibular>>>other sites Solitary slow growing mass Tubular ACC EMCA BCA BCA Dermal analogue (Membranous type) Often Multifocal Can be associated with Brooke Spiegler syndrome (multiple trichoepithelioma, cylindroma) Molecular findings: CYLD1 gene, chromosome 16q Presumed tumor suppressor gene, mutated or lost in sporadic and germline tumors Tubulotrabecular type CTTNB1 mutations Nuclear β catenin and LEF-1 expression Recurrence rate Very low <2% Exception Dermal analogue 25% May really be multifocality rather than recurrence

TAKE HOME POINTS Like other salivary gland tumors, basaloid or blue salivary tumors can be stratified by their border and cell type PLGA/CASG is not a biphasic tumor and is thus fairly simple to differentiate from ACC when given adequate material ACC, EMCA, PA, and BCA/BCAC are biphasic tumors that have key discriminatory morphologic characteristics EWSR1 FISH ++ Adamantinoma like Ewing Sarcoma Almost all basaloid salivary tumors can undergo HGT and are best recognized by searching for the differentiated component; otherwise non salivary tumors and metastases should be considered CD99 15
