Prospective testing of mucoepidermoid carcinoma for the MAML2 translocation: clinical implicationsSimion I Chiosea
Department of Pathology, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
Laryngoscope 122:1690-4. 2012..Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) with MAML2 translocation is believed to be associated with lower clinical stage, lower histologic grade, and better outcome. We summarized our prospective experience testing MEC for the MAML2 translocation...
The profile of acinic cell carcinoma after recognition of mammary analog secretory carcinomaSimion I Chiosea
