“…Salivary gland tumors are increasingly recognized as frequently containing recurrent fusion genes, which has allowed diagnostic refinement and improved classification. To date, gene fusions have been identified in pleomorphic adenoma ( PLAG1 , HMGA2 ), 2‐9 mucoepidermoid carcinoma ( CRTC1 / CRTC3 ‐ MAML2 ), 10‐13 adenoid cystic carcinoma ( MYB / MYBL1 ‐ NFIB ), 14‐16 secretory carcinoma ( ETV6 ‐ NTRK3 / RET/MET/MAML3 ), 17‐19 hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma ( EWSR1 ‐ ATF1 / CREM ), 20,21 the cribriform variant of polymorphous adenocarcinoma ( PRKD1/PRKD2/PRKD3 ), 22 acinic cell carcinoma ( NR4A3 , HTN3 ‐ MSANTD3 ), 23‐25 intraductal carcinoma ( RET ‐ NCOA4 / TRIM27 / TRIM33 / KIAA1217 , TUT1‐ETV5 , STRN / EML4 / MYO18A ‐ ALK ), 26‐33 and myoepithelial carcinoma ( PLAG1 ) 34,35 . In addition, microsecretory adenocarcinoma, which has recently been proposed as a new entity, is characterized by a novel MEF2C ‐ SS18 fusion gene 36 .…”
