There are a bunch of other [[stains]] that are touted to be useful (amylase, anti-chymotrypsin, lactoferrin). Weinreb thinks these are '''not''' helpful.<ref name=IW_10jan2011>IW. 11 January 2011.</ref>

Comment:
Comment:
Immunostains are in keeping with acinic cell carcinoma (mammoglobin, S-100 and p63 are all NEGATIVE). A PAS stain is positive in the tumour.
The tumour stains as follows:
POSITIVE: CK7, CK19, AACT, PAS.
NEGATIVE: mammaglobin, S-100, p63.
 
The staining is in keeping with acinic cell carcinoma.
