Cribriform adenocarcinoma of the minor salivary gland
Diagnosis in short

Cribriform adenocarcinoma of the minor salivary gland. H&E stain.

Synonyms cribriform adenocarcinoma of the tongue

LM cribriform and solid architecture, cytology similar to papillary thyroid carcinoma (irregular nuclear membranes, nuclear overlap), usually covered by an intact squamous epithelium
LM DDx polymorphous low grade adenocarcinoma, papillary thyroid carcinoma
IHC CK7 +ve, vimentin +ve, CD117 -ve/+ve, S-100 +ve
Site head and neck - usually tongue

Prevalence very rare
Prognosis good
Clin. DDx other salivary gland tumours
Treatment excision

Cribriform adenocarcinoma of the minor salivary gland, abbreviated CAMSG, is a rare malignancy of the salivary gland, typically of the tongue.[1]

It is also known as cribriform adenocarcinoma of the tongue, abbreviated CAT.

The World Health Organization lumps this tumour with polymorphous adenocarcinoma, a decision that is considered "controversial".[2]

General

  • Rare - small case series and case reports.
  • Typically tongue - first described there.[3]
  • Good prognosis[1] - on limited data.
