Comparative cytologic findings of in situ and invasive adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix.

abstract：:Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a malignant neoplasm most commonly originating in salivary glands of the head and neck area. When ACC presents outside of these locations, the diagnosis may become more challenging. We describe three cases of ACC presenting in extra-salivary gland sites. Two cases were metastatic; in ...
