The histologic feature varies according to stage of evolution and severity of inflammation. We report here 7 cases of K\u00fcttner\u2019s tumor that morphologically resemble primary salivary gland marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type. Histologically, the lobular architecture was distorted and the septa showed sclerosis. There was a dense lymphoplasmacytoid infiltration with lymphoid follicle formation accompanied by loss of acini and ducts. In 4 cases, a few salivary gland ducts contained the lymphoid cells within the epithelium. However, a true lymphoepithelial lesion was observed in none of the 7 cases. Immunohistochemical study demonstrated a disrupted follicular dendritic cell network, which is a characteristic finding of follicular colonization of MALT-type lymphoma. In 6 cases, there were a few small foci of lymphocytes somewhat resembling centrocyte-like cells of MALT-type lymphoma. However, immunohistological study demonstrated the mixed nature of the cells resembling centrocyte-like cells. Moreover, the polytypic nature of B lymphocytes was demonstrated by immunohistochemistry and polymerase chain reaction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/106689690401200411","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,4,4]],"date-time":"2006-04-04T14:30:54Z","timestamp":1144161054000},"page":"389-393","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["K\u00fcttner\u2019s Tumor of Salivary Glands Resembling Marginal Zone B-cell Lymphoma of the MALT Type: A Histopathologic and Immunohistochemical Study of 7 Cases"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Masaru","family":"Kojima","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Clinical Laboratories, Gunma Cancer Center Hospital, Ohta, Department of Pathology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shigeo","family":"Nakamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Genetics, Aichi Cancer Center Hospital, Nagoya"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hideaki","family":"Itoh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Clinical Laboratories, Maebashi Red Cross Hospital, Maebashi"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yuko","family":"Yamane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Clinical Laboratories, Gunma Cancer Center Hospital, Ohta"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuhiko","family":"Shimizu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Clinical Laboratories, Ashikaga Red Cross Hospital, Ashikaga, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nobuhide","family":"Masawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016487209128454"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00661007"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0344-0338(11)80241-4"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00125480-199807000-00004"},{"key":"atypb5","first-page":"231","volume-title":"Diagnostic histopathology of tumor","author":"Cheuk W","year":"2000","edition":"2"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jcp.41.4.403"},{"key":"atypb7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jcp.43.11.888"},{"key":"atypb8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2559.1987.tb02654.x"},{"key":"atypb9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0385-8146(12)80028-9"},{"key":"atypb10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.MP.0000022280.72359.04"},{"key":"atypb11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcp\/111.1.111"},{"key":"atypb12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00443482"},{"key":"atypb13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0046-8177(88)80259-4"},{"key":"atypb14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000478-199109000-00001"},{"key":"atypb15","series-title":"3rd series","first-page":"387","volume-title":"Atlas of tumor pathology","author":"Ellis CL","year":"1996"},{"key":"atypb16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcp\/111.4.488"},{"key":"atypb17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000478-199505000-00004"},{"key":"atypb18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcp\/106.4.498"},{"key":"atypb19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0046-8177(97)90161-1"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Surgical Pathology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/106689690401200411","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/106689690401200411","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T10:18:01Z","timestamp":1777457881000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/106689690401200411"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2004,10]]},"references-count":19,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2004,10]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/106689690401200411"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/106689690401200411","relation":{},"ISSN":["1066-8969","1940-2465"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1066-8969","type":"print"},{"value":"1940-2465","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2004,10]]}}}
