  • Title: Clear cell myoepithelial carcinoma of minor salivary gland: a case report.
    Author: Yang S, Zeng M, Zhang J, Chen X.
    Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2010 Mar; 39(3):297-300. PubMed ID: 19939628.
    Abstract:
    Myoepithelial carcinoma with predominantly clear cell morphology is rare. A review of the literature identified 15 unequivocal cases, only two of which were of minor salivary gland origin. A case of minor salivary gland clear cell myoepithelial carcinoma of the retromolar region in a 70-year-old man is presented. It is important to recognize the clinicopathologic features of this unusual tumor, because of its histological similarity to several other primary and metastatic clear cell tumors and its aggressive behavior.
