Abstract

Amelanotic malignant melanoma (AMM) represents only 2%-8% of all malignant melanomas, and primary AMM of the parotid gland is very rarely diagnosed. This is the second case of primary AMM of the parotid gland in the literature. The aim of this report is to discuss our case and this rare entity. The detection of AMM is very complex because the pa- thology results can be confused with those for inflammatory processes and benign and malignant tumors. Immunohistochemical analysis of S100 protein and human melanoma black 45 (HMB45) analysis provides guidance in the differential diagnosis of AMM. In this report, we pres- ent a rapidly growing amelanotic malignant melanoma in the parotid gland. Examination of the patient and radiological studies showed no other lesions

Özet

Tüm malign melanomların sadece %2-8'i amelanotik malign melanom (AMM)'dur ve parotis bezinin AMM'si çok daha nadir bulunmaktadır. Bu olgu literatürdeki ikinci primer parotis bezi AMM'sidir. Bu yazıdaki amacımız bizim olgumuzu ve bu nadir hastalığı tartışmaktır. AMM'nin saptanması oldukça karmaşıktır çünkü patolojik çalışmalarda inflamatuvar süreç, benign ve ma- lign tümör ayırt edilemeyebilir. S-100 protein and Human Mela- noma Black 45 (HMB45) immünhistokimyasal analizi ayırıcı tanıda kılavuzluk sağlamaktadır. Bu yazıda parotis bezinde hızlı gelişen bir amelanotik malign melanomdan bahsedilmektedir. Hastanın muayenesi ve radyolojik incelemeleri sonrası herhangi başka bir lezyon gözlenmemiştir
