Undifferentiated carcinoma with lymphoid stroma or lymphoepithelial carcinoma of the major salivary glands is a demographically and histopathologically unique malignancy. Although whites may have the disease, it is preponderantly a carcinoma of North American Eskimos and native Greenlanders. The carcinoma shares many features with undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinomas, from which it must be distinguished: histologic appearance, putative relationship with Epstein-Barr virus, predilection for mongoloid races, and response to therapy. In some cases, the carcinoma appears to have evolved from a lymphoepithelial lesion.

AbstractA series of 55 (42 benign and 13 malignant) salivary gland tumours were investigated by immunohistochemistry, to detect Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein (LMP1) and byin situhybridization for EBV-encoded RNA. Non-neoplastic gland from all the patients with tumours and 15 control glands were also examined. All cases, both neoplastic and non-neoplastic were negative for LMP1 and failed to show any positive signal byin situhybridization for EBV RNA. One undifferentiated carcinoma from a European patient was included in the group. These results confirm previous reports of an ethnic association between EBV and undifferentiated carcinomas of the salivary gland. They do not support an aetiological role for EBV in other salivary gland tumours.

A rare undifferentiated carcinoma with lymphoid stroma (UCLS) of the parotid gland is described in a white Turkish patient. The raised serum IgG to Epstein-Barr virus capsid antigen suggests a causal relationship between Epstein-Barr virus and this type of salivary gland carcinoma. Some clinical features are briefly reviewed.
