title: [Bronchial mucoepidermoid carcinoma in a child].
abstract: A case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma in a seven year old girl is reported. This represents the eleventh case of this bronchial neoplasm seen in pediatric ages. For our knowledge this is first case which corroborates by immunohistochemistry, it originates from the salivary bronchial glands. The poor knowledge of this illness frequently delays its diagnosis. We are obligated to report these types of cases in order to have a better understanding of the clinical and pathological presentation of the lesion.
