Very little material on this topic has been published. This tumour represents a therapeutic challenge since there are no specific recommendations or guidelines. We present a case of malignant myoepithelioma arising de novo in the parotid gland. We discuss our therapeutic approach and considerations on appropriate post-surgical treatment. Then we provide a review of international literature on this interesting and rare oncological entity.展开更多

More than half of the adenomyoepitheliomas (AME) are benign, but in rare instances, it may become malignant. Malignant adenomyoepitheliomas almost always occur in the breast and salivary gland. They are unusual in vulva. We report this case and provide some information about symptoms, microstructure, treatment, and a discussion about this kind of disease.展开更多

The histological appearance includes solid, myxoid and reticular growth patterns. Vimentin and S-100 protein are very sensitive but non-specific immunohistochemical markers of neoplastic myoepithelium. Conservative surgery is the treatment of choice. A case of myoepithelioma of the minor salivary gland of tongue is described, focusing on clinical behaviour, histopathological and immunohistochemical features.展开更多
