Mucoepidermoid carcinoma arising in Warthin tumor of the parotid gland is an extremely rare entity. This is so far described only in the adult age group, and only one patient has been reported in the pediatric age group until today. Herein, we describe our patient and review the literature. This was a case of a 9-year-old girl admitted with a painless swelling in the left side of her face for at least 2 weeks. Histopathologic examination of total parotidectomy specimens revealed mucoepidermoid carcinoma arising in the Warthin tumor. This case is the youngest patient reported to date.
