Acinic cell carcinoma is believed to arise from progenitor reserve cells of the intercalated ducts of salivary tissue. Although characteristically slow growing with clinical behavior reflective of a low-grade tumor‚ acinic cell carcinoma can recur in 25—50% of patients if not treated adequately [Spafford et al‚ 1991]. A subset of acinic cell carcinomas are clinically more aggressive with metastasis to regional lymph nodes and distant sites‚ particularly the lung‚ at presentation. Histologic grading
