Notes:
The neoplastic cells present in a sialadenoma pappiliferum were found by immunoperoxidase method and immunofluorescent staining technique to co-express 3 different types of intermediate-sized filaments (IPs) defined by monoclonal antibodies to cytokeratin, vimentin and desmin. When other salivary gland tumors such as 18 pleomorphic adenomas, 15 adenolymphomas, 2 oxyphilic adenomas, 7 mucoepidermoid tumors, 5 acinic cell tumors, 8 adenoid cystic carcinomas and 6 adenocarcinomas were examined immunohistochemically for the expression of IPs, no tumors with all 3 types of IPs observed in sialadenoma papilliferum were found.
