Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the salivary gland. It rarely occurs in other organs. Less than 20 cases of mucoepidermoid carcinoma of liver have been reported in the literature. A 70-year-old woman with a liver mass is reported in this case report. After liver segmentectomy operation, the specimen was examined microscopically, a tumor consisting of epidermoid, mucinous, and intermediate cells was observed. It was interpreted as mucoepidermoid carcinoma. As no other focus was detected from comprehensive scanning of the patient, it was diagnosed as primary mucoepidermoid carcinoma of liver. Due to mimicking other tumors such as adenosquamous carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma; cautious examination and differential diagnosis are important.
