Myopericytoma of the Neck: Sonographic Appearance and Sonographically Guided Needle Biopsy

Abstract

We report the imaging and pathologic findings of a case of myopericytoma of the neck in a 70-year-old woman, which was diagnosed by ultrasound-guided core-needle biopsy. The mass demonstrated homogeneous intense enhancement on contrast-enhanced CT and was markedly hypervascular on power Doppler sonography. The histopathological findings of the core biopsy were consistent with myopericytoma.
