The tumor is morphologically heterogeneous and can exhibit a broad histologic spectrum. We describe a case of multiple myopericytoma occurring in the head and neck skin region with involvement of the parotid gland where it is known to occur very rarely. A 40-year-old woman noticed multiple enlarging, painless, round-shaped masses on her left cheek. The patient had experienced a similar lesion of the same area 8 years earlier which was completely excised and the pathological diagnosis was spindle cell type myoepithelioma. On a computed tomographic image, one mass involved the superficial parotid gland and was well encapsulated. Excision of the facial masses and superficial parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation were performed. A diagnosis of myopericytoma was established in light of the immunohistochemical pattern with the histopathological findings. Over the 4-year follow-up period, there was no evidence of recurrence. As many perivascular myoid neoplasms share common morphologic features with myopericytoma, we should consider the differential diagnosis, and confirm the histological findings with appropriate immunohistochemical staining. After identifying myopericytoma, it should be treated with wide surgical excision to prevent local recurrence.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5999\/aps.2012.39.2.158","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,19]],"date-time":"2012-03-19T11:09:42Z","timestamp":1332155382000},"page":"158-161","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Multiple Myopericytoma of the Face and Parotid Gland"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Yun-Ik","family":"Jung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoon-Kyu","family":"Chung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine, Wonju, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Seum","family":"Chung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, National Health Insurance Corporation Ilsan Hospital, Goyang, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"445","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0560.1996.tb01434.x","article-title":"Cutaneous adult myofibroma: a vascular neoplasm","volume":"23","author":"L Requena","year":"1996","journal-title":"J Cutan Pathol"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"513","DOI":"10.1097\/00000478-199805000-00001","article-title":"Myofibromatosis in adults, glomangiopericytoma, and myopericytoma: a spectrum of tumors showing perivascular myoid differentiation","volume":"22","author":"SR Granter","year":"1998","journal-title":"Am J Surg Pathol"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1500","DOI":"10.1016\/j.humpath.2010.02.014","article-title":"Myopericytoma of the kidney","volume":"41","author":"SK Lau","year":"2010","journal-title":"Hum Pathol"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"104","DOI":"10.1097\/01.pas.0000178091.54147.b1","article-title":"Myopericytoma of skin and soft tissues: clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical study of 54 cases","volume":"30","author":"T Mentzel","year":"2006","journal-title":"Am J Surg Pathol"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e59","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tripleo.2009.09.029","article-title":"Multifocal myopericytoma in the maxillofacial region: a case report","volume":"109","author":"L Xia","year":"2010","journal-title":"Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1239","DOI":"10.1097\/00000478-199212000-00011","article-title":"Myofibromatosis-like hemangiopericytoma metastasizing as differentiated vascular smooth-muscle and myosarcoma.
