doi:10.3969/j.issn.1005-4979.2021.03.014

Abstract

Abstract:

Nuclear protein of the testis(NUT) carcinoma is a rare and aggressive carcinoma that typically arises from midline structures, frequently from the head and neck area. Under microscope, it has special histopathological manifestations. Immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) showed that NUT（+）. This article briefly analyzes the clinicopathological characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and differential diagnosis of a case of NUT carcinoma of the parotid gland, and discusses the current diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of NUT carcinoma of the head and neck.

Key words: nuclear protein of the testis carcinoma, head and neck area, parotid gland, diagnosis, prognosis

摘要：

睾丸核蛋白（nuclear protein of the testis， NUT）癌是一种罕见的高度侵袭性恶性肿瘤,通常发生于中线部位，多发生于头颈部。镜下具有独特的组织病理学表现。免疫组织化学及荧光原位杂交（fluorescence in situ hybridization,FISH）结果均显示为NUT（+）。本文对1例腮腺NUT癌的临床病理特征、诊断、治疗及鉴别诊断进行简要分析，探讨目前头颈部NUT癌的诊断、治疗及预后。
