Giant epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of the parotid gland
Clinical Imaging, 05/06/09
Maurer MH et al. - The authors present the case of an elderly woman with a painless giant tumor of the neck. Computed tomography demonstrated a cyst-like lesion that appeared to arise from the parotid gland. The tumor was removed in toto and histopathologically diagnosed as an epithelial–myoepithelial carcinoma. Such rare carcinomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of parotid gland malignancies. The authorsdiscuss the possibilities of imaging modalities such as and magnetic resonance imaging in the differentiation between benign and malignant salivary gland tumors.
