“…Acinic cell carcinoma in the mandible has female predeliction as reported by Hiremath et al, Nakazawa et al 4,5 Hence our finding in the 77 years old male is rare. Barnes et al described two theories for the central salivary gland neoplasms; one suggests a neoplastic transformation in developmentally entrapped salivary gland tissue in the bone and the other suggests a metaplasia of epithelial lining of an odontogenic cyst.…”

Acini cell carcinoma are low grade tumors of the salivary glands with a rare occurrence in the axial or appendicular skeleton. The parotid, submandibular and the minor salivary glands are sites of involvement in that order. Painless swelling is the usual presentation with a lytic appearance on radiology and imaging, CT or MRI, FNAC can to some extent differentiate between a benign or malignant lesion thereby dictating the likely extent of excision. On histopathological examination of resected specimens, acinic cell carcinoma shows tumor cells arranged as papillary clusters, acinar pattern and dispersed population with individual tumor cells displaying moderate nuclear pleomorphism, anisonucleosis, round nuclei and moderate amount of ill-defined granular cytoplasm. A unique intraosseous presentation of acinic cell carcinoma, in an elderly male, necessitated a segmental partial mandibulectomy and a comprehensive neck dissection. The tumour area was widely excised from the second premolar region to the coronoid process, and radical neck dissection was performed.

“…Joseph A. Regzi [3] documented that acinic cell carcinoma may be found in all age groups, including children, with peak incidence noted within fifth and sixth decade of life and that slow-growing swelling and pain are the presenting symptom, as in the present case where the patient was 65 years' old with complaint of swelling and pain. Nakazawa M et al [6] reported a case acinic cell carcinoma of mandible in female patient as in the present case where the patient was a female and mandible was involved. Hara I et al [7] reported a central acinic cell carcinoma of mandible in a 67-year-old woman, radiographic examination revealed a radiolucency from 2 nd to 3 rd molar of left mandible, preliminary diagnosis was odontogenic tumor, and histopathological examination disclosed diagnosis of acinic cell carcinoma.…”

Acinic cell carcinoma is an uncommon low-grade malignant tumor of salivary glands. It was first described by Nasse in 1892, arising in parotid salivary gland. Salivary gland tumors are also known to develop within jaw bones, arising within the jaw as a primary central lesion, and are extremely rare with only a few cases reported. We present a rare case report of 65-year-old woman with intraosseous acinic cell carcinoma of left side of the mandible.

“…Abrams and Melrose (1978) have not identified metastasis of acinic cell carcinoma originating from the minor salivary glands. Metastasis has not been observed in 7 previous cases of central acinic cell carcinoma (Ito et al, 1970;Abrams and Melrose, 1978;Spiro et al, 1978;Chaudhry et al, 1986;Bondi et al, 1989;Flood et al, 1991;Nakazawa et al, 1998; Table 1). In this case, the submandibular lymph nodes carrying metastasis were 7 and 5 mm in diameter.…”

“…The treatment of central acinic cell carcinoma, reported in the scientific literature including our case was resection of the jaw (5), enucleation and curettage (1), no-treatment (1), and unknown (1 case), (Ito et al, 1970;Spiro et al, 1978;Abrams and Melrose, 1978;Chaudhry et al, 1986;Bondi et al, 1989;Flood et al, 1991;Nakazawa et al, 1998).…”
