No full textOnly 29 cases of salivary gland carcinosarcoma de novo have been described in the English-language literature. We present a new case of parotid gland carcinosarcoma de novo and discuss diagnostic and treatment modalities of this pathologic entity. Our patient underwent total parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. At 26-month follow-up, the patient presented no evidence of recurrence. One-third of the cases of salivary carcinosarcoma de novo died of the disease after a median period of 10 months. Although the number of cases is limited, the combination of radical surgical excision and radiotherapy seems currently the treatment of choice

No full textAbstract Not available
...Syringocystoadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) is an uncommon
benign hamartomatous tumour of the skin
characterized by extensive papillary growth of epithelial
elements down into the dermis. Fewer than 200
cases have been reported in the literature (1) and
approximately one-third were associated with a preexisting
nevus sebaceous (2). The lesions have been
noted at birth in:/50% of cases, and during infancy
and childhood in another 15%. The site of occurrence
of SCAP has been the head and neck in:/75% of
cases (3). SCAP of the external ear canal is exceedingly
rare. In a review of the literature by Muller and
Theissig (1), only 11 cases of SCAP of the external ear
canal were disclosed. Since that review, another case of
congenital syringocystoadenoma of the tragus, concha
and lobule extending to the outer ear canal has been
described by Jordan et al. (3) in a 21⁄2-week-old infant..
