An Unusual Presentation and Aggressive Course of Metastatic Myoepithelial Carcinoma.

Nathalie C Zeitouni1,2, Dih-Dih Huang1,2, David Row1,2.   

Abstract

Myoepithelial carcinomas are rare tumors that make up 1 to 2 percent of all salivary gland neoplasms. We present a case of a 55-year-old man with myoepithelial carcinoma that developed into widespread cutaneous, lung, and brain metastases refractory to treatment, including newer immunotherapies. Newer strategies or treatments are needed for the future benefit of patients with advanced disease.
