Immunohistochemical staining results for SOX10 and GATA3 in adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) and polymorphous adenocarcinoma (PAC)

Staining pattern	SOX10 (p = 0.19)		GATA3 (p = 0.27)
Tumor type	AdCC n: 25 (%)	PAC n: 25 (%)	AdCC n: 25 (%)	PAC n: 25 (%)
Strong and diffuse staining (score ≥ 8)	22 (88)	25 (100)	2 (8)	0 (0)
Dim or focal staining (score from 3 to 7)	3 (12)	0 (0)	8 (32)	5 (20)
Negative staining (score < 3)	0 (0)	0 (0)	15 (60)	20 (80)

A p value of < 0.05 was considered significant
