gland tumor composed almost exclusively of sheets,islands,or cords of cells with myoepithelial differentiationvSpindle cells,plasmacytoid cells,epithelioid cells,clear cell patterns.vOther termsmyoepithelial adenoma benign myoepithelial tumor IntroductionME is a benign salivary gland 3vBenign adenomas account for 65.5%of salivary gland tumors.vMEs were recognized as a histologically distinct entity in 1991 by the World Health Organization.IntroductionBenign adenomas account for 654vMEs account for 1.5%of all of the tumors in the major and minor salivary glands,and 40%arise in the parotid glands.vMinor salivary glands follow in frequency,especially in the palate(21%).IntroductionMEs account for 1.5%of all of5vThe age of patients with ME ranges from 9 to 85 years,with an average of 44 years and the peak age of occurrence in the third decade.vIt typically presents as a solitary,slowly growing,otherwise asymptomatic mass.vMEs are less prone to recur than pleomorphic adenomas.IntroductionThe age of patients with ME ra6CT imaging features and pathologyCT imaging features homogenous enhancement(Fig 1)inhomogeneous enhancement with enhancing nodules,the presence of

abutting on the capsule of gland(arrow).B,Contrast-enhanced axial CT scan shows the mass(102.11 HU)with homogeneous strong enhancement(arrow).C,Microscopic examination(HE2)shows that the ME(M)is separated from the parotid gland and the surrounding soft tissues by a fibrous capsule(FC).The stroma is scanty.D,Microscopic examination(HE100)shows that the tumor is composed of the plasmacytoid and spindle cells.Relatively large vessels are seen in the tumor(arrows).CT imaging features and pathol8CT imaging features and pathologyA 66-year-old woman with ME.A,Precontrast axial CT scan shows an indistinct margin mass in the superficial lobe of the left parotid gland abutting on the capsule of the gland with calcification(arrow).B,Contrast-enhanced axial CT scan shows the mass with inhomogeneous enhancement.It contains a central enhancing nodule(small black arrow)and a nonenhancing peripheral cystic component(white arrow).C,Microscopic examination(HE10)shows the epithelioid nest(arrow)with a lot of vessels and a cystic component in the center(black asterisk).D,Microscopic examination(HE20)shows the inflamed cells(long arrows)and the tumor cells(short arrow).CT imaging
