Abstract:
Canal carcinoma of the salivary glands is a very rare tumor. It sits preferentially in the parotid gland, in the maxillary gland and exceptionally in the accessory salivary glands. We report the case of a 57 year old patient, with no specific medical history. She presented for a left parotid swelling evolving for 2 months, without other signs associated with the origin of the discovery of a rare entity of carcinomas parotidiens, characterized histologically by its great resemblance to the non-specific carcinoma of the breast formerly called ductal carcinoma of the breast. The diagnosis is based on a good anatomo-clinical and immunohistochemical correlation.
