“…Very little is known regarding risk factors for AcCC. Although familial predisposition and previous radiation exposure have been considered, no cases were noted among long-term atomic bomb survivors [40] and descriptions of familial occurrence are very sparse [41]. One case has been reported in an individual with Cowden syndrome [42], and there is a recent case report of AcCC of the breast developing in a BRAC1 mutation carrier [43].…”

Epidemiologic and clinicopathologic features, therapeutic strategies, and prognosis for acinic cell carcinoma of the major and minor salivary glands are critically reviewed. We explore histopathologic, histochemical, electron microscopic and immunohistochemical aspects and discuss histologic grading, histogenesis, animal models, and genetic events. In the context of possible diagnostic difficulties, the relationship to mammary analog secretory carcinoma is probed and a classification is suggested. Areas of controversy or uncertainty, which may benefit from further investigations, are also highlighted.
