Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma with adenoid cystic-like features of the head and neck region: A report of two cases.

Abstract:

:The histology of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) can resemble that of adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC). Herein, we report two cases of BSCC with adenoid cystic-like features (BSCC-AdC). We collected cases of AdCC and BSCC of the head and neck region, extracted two cases with unusual histology, and reexamined them histologically and immunohistochemically. Case 1 involved an 81-year-old Japanese male, who had an elastic-hard mass on the left side of his tongue, and a biopsy examination suggested AdCC. Case 2 involved a 63-year-old Japanese male, who had a polypoid mass on his right hypopharynx. He was diagnosed with AdCC with high-grade transformation. Histologically, atypical cells in a myxoid stroma, which exhibited trabecular, nest-like, and/or cribriform growth patterns, and necrosis were observed in both cases. Case 2 displayed more marked cellular atypia than Case 1. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were diffusely positive for cytokeratin 5/6, p63/p40, SRY-related HMG-box 10 and Ki-67, but negative for other myoepithelial markers and p16. Finally, both cases were rediagnosed as BSCC-AdC. It is known that esophageal BSCC displays adenoid cystic-like features, and BSCC-AdC also sometimes occurs in the head and neck region. Clinicians should carefully differentiate BSCC-AdC from AdCC of the minor salivary glands and human papillomavirus-related carcinoma.
