Abstract

A 12-year-old boy reported that a mass in his left jaw had been growing slowly for 8 months. Axial and coronal contrast-enhanced spiral CT showed a 5-cm cystic mass within an enhancing, mildly enlarged submandibular gland. Excisional biopsy revealed a cystic papillary adenocarcinoma of the left submandibular gland, very rare in children.
