Abstract
An immunocytochemical study of epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma, using antibodies
to smooth muscle myosin, keratins, and type IV collagen, is presented. This rare tumor
of salivary gland is composed of tubules and ductal structures, comprising an outer
layer of clear cells that show myoepithelial differentiation and an inner layer of
eosinophilic cells that show ductal differentiation. The findings in this study correlate
well with previous ultrastructural descriptions of this tumor.
