Abstract
We present the case of a patient with acinic cell carcinoma of the parotid gland who was found to have metastasis to the left atrium of the heart. The pathologic findings and prior reports of metastasis of acinic cell carcinoma are discussed in this article. Grading of acinic cell carcinoma and utility of immunohistochemical study using NOR-1 is discussed.
