We describe the clinicopathological features of polymorphic low-grade adenocarcinoma. The hallmarks of cytologic uniformity, remarkable histologic diversity, and favourable prognosis are emphasized. Polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma is not listed in the existing WHO classification, but recent reports indicate that it may be the second most common malignant intraoral salivary gland tumour. Both pathologists and ENT surgeons, who are not specialized in salivary gland tumours, may not be familiar with this tumour entity, and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma therefore merits a detailed description.
我们描述了多形性低度恶性腺癌的临床病理特征。强调了细胞形态一致、组织学显著多样以及预后良好等特点。多形性低度恶性腺癌未被列入现有的世界卫生组织分类中,但最近的报告表明它可能是第二常见的口腔内涎腺恶性肿瘤。病理学家和耳鼻喉科外科医生(他们并非涎腺肿瘤方面的专家)可能并不熟悉这种肿瘤实体,因此多形性低度恶性腺癌值得详细描述。
