Description

Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma is a minor salivary gland tumor, proposed as a new entity by Milchgrub et al. in 1994. The tumor usually occuss in women and is thought to be a low-grade malignancy. A review of the literature indicated that this tumor can be associated with regional lymph node metastasis and local tumor recurrence. However, no distant metastasis or tumor death has been reported. This report describes a case of hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma arising from a palatal salivary gland in a 66-year-old woman.
