Oncocytoma of Parotid Gland
Journal Title: Journal of Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences University - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Oncocytomas of salivary gland are benign tumors composed exclusively of oncocytic cells. Majority of them occur in parotid gland and have excellent prognosis following complete excision. They should be differentiated from other salivary gland tumors with more prominent oncocytic component and nodular oncocytic hyperplasia. Herein we present a case of oncocytoma of parotid gland in a 48 year old male patient who has no recurrence four years after excision.
