Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma is a carcinoma that arises from a primary or recurrent benign pleomorphic adenoma. The prevalence of epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma is low, and this histological type accounting for only 1% of all salivary gland tumors. Here, we report a rare case of Epithelial-Myoepithelial Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland with a radiologic-pathologic correlation.
