Shipping Instructions
Advise Express Mail or equivalent if not on courier service.
Necessary Information
1. A pathology report is required in order for testing to be performed. Acceptable pathology reports include working drafts, preliminary pathology or surgical pathology reports.
2. A reason for testing must be provided. If this information is not provided, an appropriate indication for testing may be entered by Mayo Clinic Laboratories.
Specimen Required
Submit only 1 of the following specimens:
Specimen Type: Tissue
Preferred: Tissue block
Collection Instructions: Submit a formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue block. Blocks prepared with alternative fixation methods may be acceptable; provide fixation method used.
Acceptable: Slides
Collection Instructions: Four consecutive, unstained, 5 micron-thick sections placed on positively charged slides, and 1 hematoxylin and eosin-stained slide.
Specimen Type
TissueSpecimen Minimum Volume
Two consecutive unstained 5 micron-thick sections placed on positive-charged slides, and 1 hematoxylin and eosin-stained slide.

An interpretive report will be provided.
Interpretation
A positive result is detected when the percent of cells with an abnormality exceeds the normal cutoff for the probe set.
A positive result suggests rearrangement of the MYB locus. The presence of a MYB rearrangement in conjunction with the proper clinical and histologic features is diagnostic of adenoid cystic carcinomas (ACC). A confirmed diagnosis of ACC results in specific clinical management that may be distinct from the management of other salivary gland neoplasms.
A negative result suggests no rearrangement of the MYB gene region at 6q23.3. The absence of a MYB rearrangement does not exclude the diagnosis of ACC, as a subset of ACCs do not show an MYB rearrangement.

Testing Algorithm
This test does not include a pathology consultation. If a pathology consult is requested, PATHC / Pathology Consultation should be ordered, and the appropriate fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) test will be performed at an additional charge.
This test includes a charge for application of the first probe set (2 FISH probes) and professional interpretation of results.
Additional charges will be incurred for all reflex probes performed. Analysis charges will be incurred based on the number of cells analyzed per probe set. If no cells are available for analysis, no analysis charges will be incurred.
Appropriate ancillary probes may be performed at consultant discretion to render comprehensive assessment. Any additional probes will have the results included within the final report and will be performed at an additional charge.
