This disease mainly affects the salivary glands, but other localizations are also possible, such as the mammary glands and lungs. EMC is characterized by the presence of atypical cells that have a high potential for invasion and metastasis. This disease is most often observed in middle-aged women, but it can also be diagnosed in men and at a younger age. The tumor can manifest as a painless formation, which complicates early diagnosis and adequate therapy. The need for EMC examination is due to both clinical and pathomorphological aspects, which require more detailed study.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_85 counter-flat

of the disease and interesting historical facts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first classification of salivary gland tumors, including epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma, was proposed in the mid-20th century. For a long time, EMC remained poorly studied, which complicated diagnosis and treatment choices. The main research efforts were focused on more common forms of cancer, such as adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. In the 1980s, clinical cases began to appear in the scientific literature, which made it possible to identify key characteristics of this type of tumor. Advances in molecular biology in the late 20th century contributed to an understanding of the genetic aspects of EMC occurrence. However, this type of carcinoma still remains on the periphery of scientific research, which affects the quality of diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%D0%AD%D0%BF%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B8%D1%8F\"><\/span>Epidemiology<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma is currently considered a rare disease. Studies show that there are approximately 0.5-1 cases per 100,000 people per year. A distinctive feature of EMC is its prevalence among women, which may be due to hormonal factors. According to recent epidemiological studies, EMC accounts for less than 10% of all cases of salivary gland cancer. The influence of race and genetic predisposition on the incidence also requires further study. According to statistics, in the early stages, this disease is significantly more often diagnosed in older people, which implies the presence of concomitant risk factors, such as chronic diseases.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%D0%93%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B5%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B4%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%81%D0%BF%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8C_%D0%BA_%D0%B4%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%BC%D1%83_%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8E\"><\/span>Genetic predisposition to this disease<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Genetic studies have identified a number of mutations associated with EMC, but a definitive understanding of the genetic nature of this disease has not yet been achieved. In particular, changes have been identified in the TP53 genes, which play a key role in cell cycle control and apoptosis. Also involved in the study are genes such as MYB and GRM8, changes in which can lead to disruption of the normal regulation of cell growth and differentiation. Further studies are needed to determine the relationship between these mutations and clinical indicators, as well as to assess the role of heredity in the development of EMC.<\/p>\n<h2><span
