Parotid's Intranodal Palisaded Myofibroblastoma: A Very Rare Tumour

Intranodal palisaded myofibroblastoma is a rare benign tumor of the lymph nodes, that arises from smooth muscle cells or myofibroblast, chiefly in the inguinal lymph nodes. Intranodal palisaded myofibroblastoma of the parotid gland is exceedingly scarce, even more, its recurrent characteristic; which underlines the grave importance of a long, strict monitoring and surveillance plan. Alongside these salient points in this unusual case, we also aim to highlight the peculiar difficulties inevitably faced, given the unfortunate lack of typical pathognomonic clinical and radiological features. We therefore, report a rare case of recurrent intranodal palisaded myofibroblastoma, arising in the felt parotid gland in a 53-year-old male patient, diagnosed by anatomopathological and immunopathological analysis. Described as benign tumor intranodal palisaded myofibroblastoma is a scarce myofibroblastic neoplasm of the lymph nodes. Histological and immunopathological features represent the determining factors for the diagnosis, of this favorable prognosis tumor.
