Carcinosarcoma of parotid gland (malignant mixed tumor)
Abstract
Salivary gland carcinosarcoma is a rare neoplasm; with a poor prognosis. The most common epithelial components are
adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma, whereas the most common mesenchymal components are chondrosarcoma. It
should not be confused with the most common carcinoma ex‑pleomorphic adenoma, in which the epithelial component alone
is malignant. This condition might exhibit with a wide variety of presentation and symptoms along with associated conditions.
We present a case of an old patient who presented with a very unusual type clinically with confusing presentation which was
eventually diagnosed as carsinosarcoma. In addition, the literature is reviewed, and the possible clinical signs and management
of malignant mixed tumor of the salivary gland are briefly discussed.
Keywords: Carcinosarcoma, malignant mixed tumor, parotid gland
