Abstract
A 39-year-old woman presented with left neck masses for 4 months and epiphora of the left eye for 3 weeks. Ultrasonography revealed a mass in the left parotid gland and multiple cervical lymph nodes. Biopsy of the mass in the left parotid gland revealed infiltrating ductal carcinoma. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan was undertaken, which showed a mass in the left parotid gland and multiple cervical lymph nodes with high metabolism. A nodule in the left nasolacrimal duct with high metabolism was observed. The nodule was surgically removed and pathologically confirmed as metastatic parotid ductal carcinoma.
