Background: Secretory carcinoma (SC), originally described as mammary analogue SC, is a predominantly low-grade salivary gland neoplasm characterized by recurrent t(12;15)(p13;q25) translocation, resulting in ETV6-NTRK3 gene fusion. Recently, alternative ETV6-RET , ETV6-MAML3 and ETV6-MET fusions have been found subset of SCs lacking the classic fusion transcript, but still harboring ETV6 rearrangements. Design: Forty-nine cases SC revealing typical histomorphology immunoprofile were...

Salivary duct carcinoma is a highly malignant salivary gland tumour with aggressive clinical behaviour, characterized by histological resemblance to invasive ductal of the breast. Amplification HER-2/neu oncogene and over-expression its gene product have both prognostic therapeutic implications in breast cancer. Recent report on carcinomas for using immunohistochemistry (IHC) has shown most cases. However, correlation between IHC molecular genetic analysis not yet been performed.We now...
