However, very rarely, this may occur in the parapharyngeal space. Interestingly, the parapharyngeal BCC is frequently misdiagnosed as a peritonsillar abscess. In this study, we reported 2 cases of para pharyngeal BCC misdiagnosed as peritonsillar abscess. PMID:35088618 | DOI:10.1177/01455613211067846 View on the web Inoreader.
