Descrição: Salivary gland carcinosarcoma is a rare neoplasm in which both stromal and epithelial components meet the microscopic criteria for malignancy. Seventy-four cases have been reported in English-language literature to date. In this study, we describe the case of an 81-year-old male patient with parotid gland carcinosarcoma featuring foci of undifferentiated carcinoma and sarcomatous components such as chondrosarcoma, high-grade undifferentiated sarcoma, and malignant giant cell tumor. We reviewed and discussed this rare occurrence of salivary gland carcinosarcoma with areas of malignant giant cell tumor, which had been reported only twice previously.
