Abstract

Tumors of the parapharyngeal space are rare entities that represent less than 1 % of all head and neck neoplasms. Parapharingeal masses may represent a relevant differential diagnostic challenge for clinicians. The common benign character of these conditions does not exclude malignancy, such as in this case in which malignant transformation was observed.
