Demographics of benign parotid tumours: Warthin’s tumour versus other benign salivary tumours

Facial nerve paralysis associated with a parotid gland tumour classically denotes malignancy. Only a few case reports have indicated benign parotid tumours as a cause of facial nerve palsy. We present a new case of facial nerve paralysis secondary to Warthin’s tumour of the parotid gland. It is important for clinicians to be aware that, on rare occasions, facial nerve dysfunction may result from benign parotid disease.

First Year Of Life

AbstractHaemangioma of the parotid gland is a well-described condition that accounts for 50 per cent of parotid tumours presenting during the first year of life. Parotid haemangiomas in adults are much rarer and until now only the cavernous variety have been reported. We report a case of a capillary haemangioma in an adult and discuss the literature.

Key Aspects

Salivary gland tumours are uncommon and account for just 6% of all head and neck neoplasms. Worldwide incidence varies, from 0.4 to 13.5 cases per 100 000 population. The parotid gland is by far the most commonly affected site, accounting for 80% of cases. The vast majority of these tumours are benign; only approximately 20–25% being malignant. This article considers the relevant clinical anatomy of the parotid gland, key aspects of assessment with history and examination, and when to refer to secondary care for further investigation. It will touch on the common benign and malignant parotid neoplasms and give an overview of secondary care management.

Warthin’S Tumour

AbstractWe report an unusual case of an extravasation mucocele complicating superficial parotidectomy. The tumour excised was a Warthin's tumour. Three months following theprimary surgery a cystic lesion appeared in the parotid bed. It was initially thought to represent a recurrence. The area was re-explored and a mucocele excised. The pathogenesisof mucoceles and the difficulties encountered when dealing with parotid tumour recurrenceare discussed.
