2007, Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology and EndodontologyCitation Excerpt :Carcinosarcoma is a rare salivary gland neoplasm typically associated with benign mixed tumor, although de novo cases have been reported.19-22 It is characterized by a carcinoma component, usually adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or undifferentiated carcinoma, and a sarcoma component, such as fibrosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, osteosarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, or leiomyosarcoma.20, 21,23-27 Cytokeratin and vimentin stain the malignant epithelial and mesenchymal components of carcinosarcoma, respectively.

2007, Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology and EndodontologyCitation Excerpt :Some transitional epithelial cells disposed in the periphery of the nests were positive for both vimentin and cytokeratins, suggesting that both elements are derived from a common precursor cell, as in pleomorphic adenoma, in accordance with some authors9,14,15 and support from molecular biological findings. The cells were negative for cytokeratins 7 and 8, and there was no duct formation, which excluded a diagnosis of an adenocarcinoma or a ductal carcinoma.7,9,15 The mesenchymal malignant component is usually represented by chondrosarcoma,4,8,9,16 but in the current case a cartilaginous component was not observed.
