Abstract Mandibular hypercondylia is a rare and autonomous bone disease due to the excessive growth of the condylar cartilage. The radiological assessment following the clinical examination remains essential to the diagnostic orientation. Planar bone scintigraphy has been frequently used to assess the active or inactive nature of this situation. We report here the case of a patient whose diagnosis of active mandibular hypercondylia was retained due to the complement with SPECT / CT imaging, the planar bone scintigraphy being negative.

Parotid oncocytoma presents in less than 1% of salivary gland tumors. Therefore, there are only very few reported cases in literature. This tumor is often diagnosed in elderly age group. It is often misdiagnosed clinically as pleomorphic adenoma, hemangioma or Warthin’s tumor. CT imaging usually shows an enhancing lobulated mass; however, it cannot exactly diagnose oncocytoma. It can be confirmed only by histopathological examination. This case report is of an Indian female of 66 years with parotid swelling who underwent total conservative parotidectomy. Post operatively, patient has no residual disease and complications.
