Abstract

Lymphadenoma is a rare benign neoplasm of the salivary gland. Herein, we present a 67-year old woman with lymphadenoma in the parotid gland. Physical and radiologic examinations of parotid lymphadenoma are not specific and preoperative diagnosis is usually difficult. Therefore, clinicians should consider the possibility that lymphadenoma may occur in the parotid gland mimicking the other more frequently observed lesions.

Key Words: Parotid, Lymphadenoma
