Abstract

We present a case of a 34-year-old woman with myoepithelial carcinoma of the retromolar area. Myoepithilial carcinoma is a rare tumor of small salivary glands most usually located in the parotid gland. The major differential diagnosis of myoepithelioma is from pleomorphic adenoma. Little is known about the clinical and biological behavior and the prognosis of myoepithelial carcinoma and there is no consensus for its treatment. It is considered a low-grade malignancy; it sometimes shows aggressive behavior and may locally recur. Our patient was treated successfully with wide-local resection and remained free of disease for 6 months.
