متن کاملCombined myoepithelial carcinoma and myoepithelioma in soft tissue: a case report and review of the literature
INTRODUCTION Soft tissue myoepithelial carcinoma and myoepithelioma are rare entities, part of myoepithelial tumors. They were incorporated into the World Health Organization classification of soft tissue tumors in 2002. Here we present an exceptional case of myoepithelial carcinoma and myoepithelioma association. To the best of our knowledge, such an association has never been reported in the ...
