So-called dedifferentiation in mesenchymal neoplasms of the uterus is very rare. Among conventional low-grade stromal tumors only three cases of dedifferentiation were reported, whereas in mixed stromal-smooth muscle tumors the dedifferentiation was yet not described. Here we present such a case of low-grade mixed stromal-smooth muscle tumor with dedifferentiation. The tumor occurred in 52-year...

Pleomorphic adenoma or benign mixed tumor is the most common salivary gland tumor. It is most frequently located in the parotid gland, and is considered to be a benign neoplasm accounting for 70-80% of all benign tumors of the salivary glands [1]. Benign metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma is extremely rare, with only a handful of cases described. We report a case of a histologically benign mixed...
