Imaging Findings of Primary Acinic Cell Carcinoma of the Breast: A Case Report

Abstract

Acinic cell carcinoma is a rare malignant tumor that accounts for 2%–3% of salivary gland tumors. Acinic cell carcinoma arising from the breast is extremely rare, with only approximately 70 cases reported to date. Owing to its rarity, previous studies have primarily focused on pathological findings. Herein, we present the clinical and radiological features of acinic cell carcinoma of the breast in a 33-year-old woman.
