Warthin tumor is a well-defined benign salivary gland neoplasm consisting of both epithelial and lymphoid components. The tumor is the second most common benign tumor next to pleomorphic adenoma. We present a case of adenocarcinoma, not otherwise classified, arising in unilateral Warthin tumor of the parotid gland in a 63-year-old male patient. Carcinomas arising in or from the epithelial component of a preexisting parotid Warthin tumor are rare and differential diagnosis of metastasis from an adenocarcinoma in Warthin tumor is important. The patient underwent a complete and thorough work-up, and no other primary malignant lesion was found. No other primary malignant lesion had manifested at the last one year follow-up period.
沃辛瘤是一种边界清晰的良性唾液腺肿瘤,由上皮和淋巴成分组成。该肿瘤是仅次于多形性腺瘤的第二常见良性肿瘤。我们报告一例63岁男性患者,其腮腺单侧沃辛瘤发生了未另行分类的腺癌。腮腺原有沃辛瘤上皮成分发生或起源的癌罕见,沃辛瘤腺癌转移的鉴别诊断很重要。患者接受了全面彻底的检查,未发现其他原发性恶性病变。在最后一年的随访期内未出现其他原发性恶性病变。
