YAP1-MAML2-Rearranged Poroid Squamous Cell Carcinoma (Squamoid Porocarcinoma) Presenting as a Primary Parotid Gland Tumor.

ABSTRACT: Porocarcinoma (synonym: malignant eccrine poroma) is a rare aggressive carcinoma type with terminal sweat gland duct differentiation. The squamous variant of porocarcinoma is even less frequent and might be indistinguishable from conventional squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). We herein describe the first case of a carcinoma presenting as a primary parotid gland malignancy in a 24-year-old male without any other primary tumor. Total parotidectomy and neck dissection were performed followed by adjuvant chemoradiation. The patient remained alive and well 10 months after diagnosis. Histology showed keratinizing SCC infiltrating extensively the parotid gland with subtle poroid cell features. Oncogenic HPV infection was excluded by DNA-based testing.
