Excerpt

Sir, the term “hybrid tumour” of the salivary glands has been proposed by Seifert and Donath [11] to define a tumour consisting of two histologically distinct entities that arise in the same nodule. Hybrid tumours of the salivary glands are rare, accounting for less than 0.1% of all the salivary gland neoplasms [3, 4, 7, 9, 11, 12, 15]. Several histological combinations are reported, including acinic cell carcinoma, salivary duct carcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, epithelial–myoepithelial carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, myoepithelial carcinoma, mucoepidermoid carcinoma and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma [9]. …
