Mammary analogue secretory carcinoma presenting as a cystic parotid mass

We present a case of a 63-year-old male with an 8-year history of a left-sided cystic facial mass which recurred despite multiple drainage procedures. Imaging findings showed a cystic mass in the left parotid gland and it was surgically resected. Pathology confirmed it to represent a mammary analogu...

description We present a case of a 63-year-old male with an 8-year history of a left-sided cystic facial mass which recurred despite multiple drainage procedures. Imaging findings showed a cystic mass in the left parotid gland and it was surgically resected. Pathology confirmed it to represent a mammary analogue secretory carcinoma, a relatively newly described entity. This case illustrates that mammary analogue secretory carcinoma can masquerade as a cyst within the parotid gland.
