All acinic cell carcinomas were classified as neoplasms in the WHO‘s international classification of disease for oncology by 1972. In a second edition, all acinic cell neoplasms considered as adenocarcinoma by 1990. Batsakis et al, described acinic cell carcinoma as a derivative from progenitor reserve cells of terminal tubules and intercalated ducts of salivary tissue for the first time.
