Abstract
Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is considered as one of the most useful diagnostic procedure on palpable and nonpalpable lesions guided with radiologic methods. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC), a rare but the most common primary malignant tumor of salivary glands. Low grade MEC needs to be distinguished from benign lesions of the salivary gland and may cause false negative results. High grade MEC may resemble squamaous cell carcinoma especially in cases with dense cystic component. Herein, we report a case of cytologically diagnosed and histologically confirmed MEC; in order to impress the importance and the effect of FNAB in the differential diagnosis of salivary gland lesions.
