Abstract EN
We present a unique case of an extensively ossified carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) in a 76-year-old man with a five-year history of a slowly growing parotid mass.
Fine-needle aspiration of the mass was nondiagnostic.
A computed tomography (CT) scan of the lesion revealed a well-circumscribed mass with peripheral calcification.
Initial pathological analysis suggested a benign parotid mass, but rigorous decalcification revealed noninvasive CXPA.
The patient underwent complete resection of the mass and remained disease-free nine months later.
Extensive ossification of a seemingly benign parotid mass may mask areas of carcinoma that may progress if left untreated.
