Although hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma (HCCC) had been previously illustrated by several authors, it was not until 1994 that this tumour was characterized by Milchgrub et al. [Am J Surg Pathol (1994),18,74] and separated from the heterogeneous group of clear cell carcinomas described in the literature. HCCC is a distinctive infiltrative low-grade, monomorphic, glycogen-rich clear cell carcinoma with prominent stromal hyalinization occurring most often in the minor salivary glands of adult women. A case of hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma arising in the tongue of an adult female is described with special reference to the presence of minor foci of mitotic activity, necrosis and anaplasia in this otherwise typical low-grade carcinoma. Widespread metastases and death within a year of initial presentation in this case suggests that there may be a subset of this indolent tumour in which these features are associated with a poor prognosis.
