In these situations, infarction appears to be directly related to the vascular disturbances caused by needle sampling, though fine this latter might be. One case of a spontaneous infarction of a parotid pleomorphic adenoma in a 46\u2010year\u2010old lady is here described in which the cytopathologic findings, which were related to ischemic infarction, preceded fine\u2010needle cytology sampling and mimicked malignancy.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The cytopathologic picture showed a quizzical mixture of necrosis and inflammation coupled to hyperplastic changes of the acinar cells, oncocytic metaplasia, and atypical squamous metaplasia of extreme degree simulating high\u2010grade epidermoid\u2010 or mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Due to the cytologically suggestive changes, a nerve\u2010sparing radical parotidectomy was performed. The differential diagnostic problems encountered in this case are discussed together to the possible medical\u2013legal implications originating from such striking atypias as to closely simulate malignancy.
