Fig. 2E Adenoid cystic carcinoma in 45-year-old man (patient 3 in Table 1). Gross pathologic specimen shows firm yellow–tan tumor with infiltrative intraluminal and extraluminal components of lesion (straight arrows) encircling lingular divisional bronchus of left upper lobe. Also note enlarged intrapulmonary node (curved arrow) and area of obstructive pneumonia (arrowhead). Li = lingular divisional bronchus.

Fig. 2F Adenoid cystic carcinoma in 45-year-old man (patient 3 in Table 1). High-magnification photomicrograph shows that tumor consists of solid (white arrows) and glandular (large black arrows) areas. Solid area contains cells having less cribriform pattern (small arrows), whereas glandular area contains cells having more cribriform pattern (arrowheads). Also note moderate to high cellular atypism in solid area. (H and E, x100)

Fig. 3A Low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma in 63-year-old woman (patient 10 in Table 1). Transverse lung window CT scan (5-mm section thickness) obtained at level of suprahepatic inferior vena cava shows lobulated mass (arrows) in left lower lobe. Also note postobstructive mucus plugging (arrowhead).

Fig. 3F Low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma in 63-year-old woman (patient 10 in Table 1). High-magnification photomicrograph shows tumor composed of mixture of glands, cysts, and solid areas. These areas show little mitotic activity, nuclear pleomorphism, or necrosis (low-grade malignancy). (H and E, x100)

Fig. 4A High-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma in 48-year-old man (patient 6 in Table 1). Transverse mediastinal window CT scan (5-mm section thickness) obtained at level of right middle lobar bronchus shows mass (arrows) obliterating lingular divisional bronchus of left upper lobe. Left lower lobe (arrowhead) is partly atelectatic due to extraluminal extension of tumor.
