Abstract:
The malignant transformation of Warthin's tumor in the parotid gland is extremely rare. In addition, among the various types of the malignant change of Warthin's tumor, squamous cell carcinoma is the rarest one. The pathogenesis of this rare disease entity is uncertain till now. Also the most effective treatment and long-term prognosis are not yet clear. Up to present, there are a few reports that only described the pathologic and clinical features of this tumor. However, there is no report about the imaging findings of this rare tumor. We report the imaging features in a case of squamous cell carcinoma arising from Warthin's tumor in the parotid gland.
