Description

Mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MEC) represent 5% of all salivary gland tumors and 20% of salivary malignancies. A portion of these carcinomas are associated with gene rearrangements involving the the C-terminal of mastermind-like gene 2 (MAML2) and either cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB)-regulated transcription coactivator 1 (CRTC1) or 3 (CRTC3). CTCR1-MAML2 fusion has been detected in 40-80% of primary salivary gland mucoepidermoid carcinomas. MECs positive for MAML2 fusions (CRTC1-MAML2 or CRTC3-MAML2) are associated with favorable clinicopathological tumor features, including lower patient age, a mild female predilection, a smaller tumor size, less frequent nodal metastasis, a lower clinical stage, a lower histological grade, and longer overall and disease-free survival.
