Abstract
Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) is an unusual malignant salivary gland tumor. Little is known about the clinical and biological behavior of EMC. There is no consensus for its treatment. It is considered as a low grade malignant tumor. Whatever, it presents a potential of local recurrence and possibility of metastases. We report a 76-year-old patient who presented an epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of parotid gland, treated successfully with wide local resection and adjuvant radiotherapy with no signs of recurrence for 3 years.
