Salivary duct carcinomas of the major salivary glands have two major distinguishing features. They closely resemble ductal carcinomas of the breast and they are high-grade malignancies. In general, but particularly for carcinomas measuring three or more centimeters in size, the clinical course is one characterized by a resistance to local control, metastases to regional lymph nodes and distant sites, and death within a few years after primary surgical treatment.
大唾液腺的涎腺导管癌有两个主要的显著特征。它们与乳腺癌的导管癌极为相似，并且是高级别恶性肿瘤。一般而言，尤其是对于直径达三厘米或更大的癌，其临床病程的特点是对局部控制有抵抗性、发生区域淋巴结和远处转移，以及在初次手术治疗后的几年内死亡。
