Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma: report of a case.

Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma (HCCC) is a recently described low-grade malignant neoplasm of minor salivary glands. Of the thirteen reported patients with this neoplasm, the majority have occurred in the oral cavity of elderly women. We report another case and add further supporting evidence that hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma is a distinct pathological entity.
