Acinic cell adenocarcinoma is a rare salivary gland tumor which predominantly occurs in the parotid gland. A 46-year-old man presented with a left preauricular mass of one month duration; the pathologic report showed acinic cell adenocarcinoma. He was transferred to the oral and maxillofacial surgery department, and a total parotidectomy was performed. We present this interesting case of acinic cell adenocarcinoma from the parotid gland with cutaneous involvement.

Tetrahymena pyriformis, syngen 1, frozen in 10 percent dimethyl sulfoxide, stored for 2 months, and then thawed could conjugate normally. More significantly, they were viable, in normal numbers, through two sex ual reorganizations. The strains ap parently did not sustain genetic dam age during the treatment. The tech niques offer considerable promise for the maintenance of breeding stocks in ciliated protozoans.
