Epithelio-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMEC) is a very rare malignancy of the salivary gland which comprises less than 1 % of salivary gland tumors. In the parapharyngeal space they can either arise from the deep lobe of parotid gland or de novo from minor salivary glands. We present a case of epithelio-myoepithelial carcinoma of parapharyngeal and masseteric space. The case is important for its rarity of presentation and we discuss the surgical difficulties and morbidities.
上皮-肌上皮癌(EMEC)是一种非常罕见的唾液腺恶性肿瘤,占唾液腺肿瘤的比例不到1%。在咽旁间隙,它们既可以起源于腮腺深叶,也可以起源于小唾液腺。我们报告一例咽旁和咬肌间隙的上皮-肌上皮癌。该病例因其罕见的表现而具有重要意义,我们讨论了手术难点和并发症。
