Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Intermediate magnification micrograph of adenoid cystic carcinoma, abbreviated AdCC. H&E stain.

AdCC consists of a mix of ductal cells and myoepithelial cells. The myoepithelial cells are predominant and have scant cytoplasm. The cribriform / tubular / cystic architecture is classic and a distinctive feature. Other features include (pink & paucicellular) hyaline stroma, and whispy & dirty material within the cystic spaces, which is PAS positive.

Normal serous glands, characteristic of the parotid salivary gland, are seen in some images.
