Descriptor carcinoma adenoide quístico
Entry term(s) cilindroma
Scope note: Carcinoma caracterizado por bandas o cilindros de estroma hialinizado o mucinoso, que separan o rodean nidos o cordones de células epiteliales de tamaño pequeño. Cuando los cilindros están dentro de las masas de células epiteliales dan al tejido un aspecto perforado, en cedazo o cribiforme. Estos tumores ocurren en la mama, las glándulas mucosas de las vías respiratorias superiores e inferiores y en las glándulas salivales. Son malignos pero de crecimiento lento y tienden a infiltrar localmente a través de los nervios. (Dorland, 27th ed)

Scope note: Carcinoma characterized by bands or cylinders of hyalinized or mucinous stroma separating or surrounded by nests or cords of small epithelial cells. When the cylinders occur within masses of epithelial cells, they give the tissue a perforated, sievelike, or cribriform appearance. Such tumors occur in the mammary glands, the mucous glands of the upper and lower respiratory tract, and the salivary glands. They are malignant but slow-growing, and tend to spread locally via the nerves. (Dorland, 27th ed)
