Frequent Site

Myoepithelial carcinoma is a rare tumor of salivary glands, the most frequent site being the parotid gland. Myoepithelial carcinoma of the maxillary sinus has only been reported very few times. As the lesion is very rare in the maxillary sinus and due to the lack of specific guidelines for its treatment, its prognosis remains to be poor. We report a rare case of myoepithelial carcinoma in the maxillary sinus and discuss its diagnostic and therapeutic aspects.

Rare Case Report

ABSTRACT Myoepithelial carcinoma (MC) is an extremely rare neoplasm of salivary gland. It is usually found in parotid gland. Here, we report a rare case of myoepithelial carcinoma of maxillary sinus along with discussion of clinical, histopathological and immunohistochemical characteristics of this rare disease.

Uncommon Tumor

Myoepithelial carcinoma is an uncommon tumor of the salivary glands, most commonly the parotid gland. Clear cell myoepithelial carcinoma is a rare variant with an aggressive behavior. Here, we describe a case of clear cell myoepithelial carcinoma arising from the hard palate in an elderly male who underwent resection of the tumor and postop radiation. Posttreatment imaging demonstrated bilateral pulmonary nodules and a C2 body lesion concerning for metastasis. Biopsy of the lung lesions revealed a monomorphous population of optically clear cells with hyperchromatic and pleomorphic nuclei which were morphologically similar to the prior resection specimen. There are few reported cases of clear cell myoepithelial carcinoma arising from the hard palate, and there are even fewer reports on metastases to the lungs. Due to the low number of reported cases, prognosis and treatment of this neoplasm is not well defined.

Adenocarcinomas of salivary glands are encountered less frequently than adenoid cystic or mucoepidermoid carcinomas. They fall into two well-defined clinicopathologic groups: 1) those arising from intercalated ducts and 2) those from the excretory and interlobular ducts. The former, designated terminal duct adenocarcinomas, are low-grade malignancies found preponderantly in the oral cavity, especially the palate. The latter, designated salivary duct carcinomas, are high-grade neoplasms and arise almost exclusively in major salivary glands, especially the parotid gland.

Epidermal cysts are common skin lesions but they occur very rarely in the oral cavity, especially in the salivary glands. Very few cases have been reported in the literature and, here, we present one such rare case of epidermal cyst in the right parotid gland in a 62-year-old female patient.

Five cases of primary malignant lymphomas of the salivary glands are reported. Four lymphomas arose in the parotid gland and one in the submandibular gland. All were non-Hodgkin lymphomas. In 4 cases the lymphomas were of low-grade malignancy, viz. 2 immunocytomas and 2 centroblastic/centrocytic malignant lymphomas, and 1 was a T-immunoblastic malignant lymphoma of high-grade malignancy. Four patients with localized disease were treated with radiotherapy and 1 patient with disseminated disease was treated with chemotherapy. One patient died from a disease unrelated to the malignant lymphoma, and 4 patients were alive at 66-136 months after treatment.

Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) was first proposed by Travis et al. in 1991 and subsequently classified as high grade neuroendocrine carcinoma (HGNEC) by the world health organization. It is a rare tumor with unclear clinicopathologic features. Herein, we describe a rare case of LCNEC with a unique Cushing’s presentation.
