Pedunculated parotid oncocytoma in submandibular region
Journal Title: Internet Journal of Medical Update - Year 2012, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Oncocytoma of the parotid is a very uncommon benign tumour accounting for 1% of benign tumours of the parotid. Clinically these swellings cannot be distinguished from other tumours and diagnosis is mainly by histopathological examination. All the reported cases arose from the superficial lobe of the parotid. This is a rare case of a pedunculated parotid tumour presenting as a swelling in the submandibular region.
