“…Loyola et al [13] stated that although basophilic mucoid material may be observed within the duct-like spaces, secretory component was not detected. In the most recent case of AAD reported by Arruda et al, Alcian blue staining revealed a significant amount of basophilic material and scarce PAS-positive eosinophilic material in duct-like spaces, indicating its mucoid nature [25].…”

“…The fraction of Ki-67-positive tumor cells, commonly known as Ki-67 labeling index, determines the fraction of a given cell population in the active growth phase and is often correlated with the aggressiveness of any lesion [64]. Ki-67 expression was variable in AAD cases, wherein it was borderline to low in the majority of the reported cases (n = 10) [11,[20][21][22][23][24][25]. However, the mean value of proliferative index as assessed by Ki-67 positive cells (72.4 + 24.9 positive cells per high-power field) in the five cases of AAD reported by Loyola et al was found to be higher than AOT and AM, and was closer to that observed in AMCA.…”

“…However, it poses a diagnostic challenge when sampled via FNA as it may be confused with malignant salivary gland neoplasms. 10,[16][17][18] Nonetheless, the presence of gland-like spaces should come as no surprise when considering the embryologic origin of teeth and salivary glands, as both tissues differentiate from budding of the primitive stomodeum in the late embryonic period. The current case is unique in that it demonstrates the cytologic characteristics of an ameloblastoma with adenoid, or gland-like, morphology, evoking a differential diagnosis of adenoid cystic carcinoma, basal cell adenocarcinoma, and non-intestinal-type sinonasal adenocarcinoma; and illustrating a potential pitfall in the workup of adenoid ameloblastomas via FNA.…”

“…The significance of this histological variant is not known. However, it poses a diagnostic challenge when sampled via FNA as it may be confused with malignant salivary gland neoplasms 10,16–18 . Nonetheless, the presence of gland‐like spaces should come as no surprise when considering the embryologic origin of teeth and salivary glands, as both tissues differentiate from budding of the primitive stomodeum in the late embryonic period.…”
