Secretory carcinoma of the salivary gland is rare a newly described malignant salivary gland tumour.[1]

It was previously known as mammary analogue secretory carcinoma, abbreviated MASC.[2]

General

  • Microscopic appearance similar to secretory breast carcinoma.[3]
  • Rare - 21 cases in the world literature as of 2012.[1]
  • Original paper described it only in adults.[3]
    • Has been described in a pediatric patient.[4]

Gross

Microscopic

Features:

  • Large cells with abundant cytoplasm.
  • Small nuclei.
  • +/-Lymphocytic infiltrate.
  • Solid and microcystic growth pattern.
  • +/-Cystic changes lined by hobnail cells - useful feature.
