Abstract

Carcinosarcoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of salivary glands that manifests both carcinomatous and sarcomatous components. Specimen of a recurrent parotid tumor of a 55-year-old male was received for histopathology. Diagnosis of a biphasic malignant neoplasm was made. Morphology and immunohistochemical profile were consistent with carcinosarcoma i.e. true malignant mixed tumor.
