ABSTRACT
Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinomas are rare, low-grade, malignant salivary gland tumors. They are mostly seen in the parotid gland. The submandibular gland is a rare localization. A 54-year-old woman presented with a painless lump on the left side of the neck. Examination showed a mass with smooth surface in the left submandibular region. Fine needle aspiration cytology of the mass was reported as malignant epithelial tumor metastasis. Computed tomography of the neck showed left submandibular gland hypertrophy. Left submandibular gland excision with functional neck dissection was performed. The histopathological diagnosis was epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of the submandibular gland with one lymph node metastasis.
