Hyalinizing Clear Cell Carcinoma of the Tonsil: A Case Report

Head and Neck Pathology
Bridget BurgessSteven Charous

Abstract

Hyalinzing clear cell carcinoma is a rare tumor of the oral cavity and is even more rarely located in the tonsil. Here, we present a case report of a pedunculated tonsillar mass in a nearly asymptomatic patient that was present for 2 years prior to removal. Complete surgical excision was achieved and no adjuvant therapy was recommended. We include a discussion of this rare pathology and its typical clinical presentation and course.
