1Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, First Clinical Medical College, China Medical University.
Objective:
To study the possibility of neuroendocrine feature of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma (SACC).
Methods:
Immunohistochemical staining was operated in SACC with S-100 protein, Neuron-specific enolase (NSE), chromagranin A and synaptophysin which are specific and correlative with neuroendocrine and neoplasias.
Results:
The positive expression of S-100, NSE, chromogranin and synaptophysin were respectively 42, 32, 8 and 7 in 50 cases of SACC.
Conclusion:
There is possibility of neuroendocrine feature in some SACC cells.
