Description

A ten-year-old male Japanese cat that presented with vomiting and anorexia was found to have a swollen right submandibular gland after palpation and X-ray examination. The extirpated gland was diagnosed as a malignant mixed tumor of the salivary gland with rare morphology. There was no normal structure in any part of the tumor tissue and it was composed of nests of squamous cell carcinoma, myoepithelial proliferation with osteoid differentiation and osteosarcoma. There was no mucinous/chondromatous prolifeation. The present mixed tumor in the submandibular gland has not previously been reported in cats.
