A 50-year-old woman has had a painless mass in the parotid gland for the past 8 months. A 2-cm, discrete, solid mass is found in the parotid gland on parotidectomy. Histologic examination shows a neoplastic lesion with uniform epithelial and myoepithelial cells; these cells form acini, tubules, and ducts supported by myxoid and chondroid stroma. Which of the following is the most likely complication of this type of parotid lesion?
