Résumé
Acinic cell carcinoma (ACC) is a low-grade malignant salivary neoplasm. The parotid gland is the predominant site of origin. ACC has a tendency to recur and metastasize, rarely enough to soft tissue as well as other sites. Medical records of a 56-year-old male with a known history of acinic cell carcinoma of the left parotid gland were reviewed. This report aims to highlight the need for early clinical suspicion of the metastatic tendency of parotid gland ACC in patients' soft tissues, and the vigorous oncologic approach to any suspected metastatic deposits, as this is the standard of practice and only treatment.
