Myoepithelioma is a rare benign neoplasm of salivary gland derivation. Pure myoepithelioma accounts for less than 1% of all salivary gland tumors. Only three cases of sinonasal myoepithelioma have been reported. Diagnosis of myoepithelioma is not easy by light microscopy alone and immunocytochemistry is indispensable. The treatment of myoepithelioma should be complete surgical excision A rare case of sinonasal spindle-cells myoepithelioma is reported in a 68-year-old woman.

Abstract
Myoepithelioma is a rare benign neoplasm of salivary gland derivation. Pure myoepithelioma accounts for less than 1% of all salivary gland tumors. Only three cases of sinonasal myoepithelioma have been reported. Diagnosis of myoepithelioma is not easy by light microscopy alone and immunocytochemistry is indispensable. The treatment of myoepithelioma should be complete surgical excision A rare case of sinonasal spindle-cells myoepithelioma is reported in a 68-year-old woman.
