Recurrent bronchial epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma after local therapy.
We present a rare case of recurrent multiple lesions of bronchial epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma in a 74-year-old man treated with local resection. Two cellular types were found: epithelial cells and myoepithelial cells. The patient remains asymptomatic at 4-years of follow-up, supporting the fact that epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma is a tumor of low-grade malignancy.
