Reevaluation of Salivary Lymphadenoma: A Subgroup Identified as Warthin-like Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma Following Molecular Investigation for MAML2 Rearrangement

Abstract: Context.— Both salivary lymphadenomas (LADs) and Warthin-like mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) contain components of epithelium and lymphoid stroma and their differential diagnosis can be difficult on the basis of morphology alone. Objective.— To clarify whether Warthin-like MEC was diagnosed as a LAD, and to compare their clinicopathologic features. Design.— A… Show more

“…Undoubtedly, MAML2 is the most important marker in the diagnosis of WL-MECs [1, 5-9, 11-18, 20-22]. Although cases of WT showing MAML2 rearrangement have been proposed [14, 23], these reports are not well accepted, may be because the histological features of these tumors have not been clearly defined [12, 14, 18, 23].…”

“…WL-MEC is more common in women and shows a younger age distribution than WT [7, 9, 19]. Its recognition is important clinicopathologically not only for correct identification of a malignant tumor but also to avoid aggressive treatment [7, 8].…”
