Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
We report the case of a 59-year old female patient presented in RIMS ENT-OPD with the chief complaints of bilateral swellings on the left and right side of the neck. Imaging studies revealed multiple nodular lesions in the parotids with involvement of deep lobe. Both the superficial and deep lobes were involved. Subsequently, a biopsy confirmed the presence of an oncocytoma. The patient was treated with total parotidectomyon right side, which was performed 1 year back and on left side 2 months back. At present, the patient is disease free and has no complications.
