Abstract

The aim of this case report is to present the clinical andhistopathological aspects of the 3 mucoepidermoid carcinomacases referred to our clinic, together with the review of thelatest literatures. Total of 3 female patients who were 35, 48and 49-year-old referred to our clinic between April-October2015 with a complaint of asymptomatic swelling of the palate.Lesions were present for almost a year. Excisional and incisionalbiopsies were performed. Histopathological evaluation revealedlow-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma for all the lesions thatbiopsy was carried out. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma should beconsidered in existence of soft, slow-growing, painless lumpsof the palate for differential diagnosis and early biopsy shouldbe performed for such lesions as it may easily be misdiagnosed

Özet

Bu derlemenin amacı mukoepidermoid karsinomanın klinik ve histopatolojik özelliklerinin değerlendirilmesi ile 3 mukoepidermoid karsinom vakasının sunulmasıdır. Nisan-Ekim 2015 tarihleri arasında kliniğimize palatal bölgede ağrısız yavaş büyüyen şişlik şikayeti ile 35, 48 ve 49 yaşlarında 3 kadın hasta başvurdu. Ortalama 1 yıldır mevcut olan lezyonların bir tanesine boyutunun küçük olması nedeni ile eksizyonel, diğer iki vakaya insizyonel biyopsi yapıldı. Histopatolojik inceleme sonucunda tüm lezyonlar düşük dereceli mukoepidermoid karsinom olarak değerlendirildi. Bu vaka raporunda incelenen 3 hasta, literatürde mevcut olan mukoepidermoid karsinoma verileri ile uyumludur. Palatinal bölgede mevcut ağrısız şişliklerde, minör tükrük bezi kaynaklı mukoepidermoid karsinoma ayırıcı tanısının akılda tutulması ve erken dönemde biyopsi yapılması hastaların doğru yönlendirilmesi açısından önemlidir
