Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is the most common malignant tumour of major and minor salivary glands. It is very difficult to diagnose mucoepidermoid carcinoma in aspiration cytology because it has overlapping cytological features of benign salivary condition. This case of 7years duration thought to be benign because it was well circumscribed, mobile, nontender but showed features of malignancy on fine needle aspiration cytology and was confirmed on biopsy as mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
