Squamous cell carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma a case report
Authors
Abstract:
A rare case of squamous cell carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma in maxillary sinus is presented. The patient is a 50-year-old woman presenting with a slow-progressive swelling in left side of her face that she has noticed 2 years earlier. The lesion was not painful and caused asymmetry and mild exophthalmos. Microscopic examination revealed that the tumor was composed of two components partly of a pleomorphic adenoma and partly of a squamous cell carcinoma. Immunohistochemical examination for Ki-67 and SMA and mucicarmin staining were also done and confirmed the diagnosis of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma. There is no evidence of recurrence 12 months after operation.

Background: Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma (PIOC) of the mouth is a very rare but well-known carcinoma. It is locally invasive and its prognosis is quite poor. It may originate from the walls of an odontogenic cyst or de novo from the remnant epithelium at this region.
