Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Public Health - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Primary hydatid cyst of salivary glands are uncommon. Although very few cases have been reviewed in parotid and submandibular salivary glands, the characteristic cytological features were rarely reported. Here we report a case of 50 year old female, presented with parotid swelling that was diagnosed as hydatid cyst on fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC).
