Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of the supraclavicular region: An unusual cause of dyspnea

Abstract

Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) is an extremely rare disease and usually develops in major salivary glands, such asthe parotid gland. EMC is regarded as a low grade-malignancy tumor, and the treatment protocol involves wide surgical excision with secure clear margins although postoperative radiotherapy is generally performed to reduce local recurrence. Thepresent study aims to report a case of EMC with a supraclavicular location due to its rare occurrence and atypical location.
