Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1996
A case of parotid lipomatosis is reported, and the literature is reviewed. This rare condition presents as a slow growing parotid mass, which may be diagnosed preoperatively using computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Long-term clinical follow-up is important because apparently complete surgical excision may be complicated by recurrence.

Removal of a parotid tumor may be a fairly simple procedure, or may involve radical disfiguring surgery. Whatever the extent of the surgery, the patient will need thorough oral hygiene. He may need help in learning to chew and swallow and he may have a tracheostomy and need to learn how to suction it so he will not be afraid to be left alone.

Indian Journal of Tuberculosis, 2017
Parotid gland tuberculosis is an uncommon manifestation of one of the most common infections even in the developing countries, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. There are no specific symptoms or clinical signs of parotid tuberculosis, and such an infection most commonly presents as a slow growing painless parotid mass.

Surgical Oncology, 1997
Parotid cancers are relatively rare but will be encountered in any head and neck oncology practice. Their histopathological diversity merits a specific classification, particularly as prognosis is often closely associated with histological type. Tumour stage is also of prognostic significance.

AbstractThis report documents an unusual case of buccal mucosa swelling due to a giant (25 × 13 mm), parotid duct sialolith. Review of the literature disclosed that this is the largest parotid sialolith ever reported. Diagnostic imaging and treatment are described.

Tropical Doctor, 2006
TB of the parotid is rare and only about 100 cases have been reported in the world literature. Often the diagnosis is made only after the surgery performed for a suspected neoplasm. We describe three patients with diffuse form of parotidTB without any evidence of tubercular focus elsewhere.

Head & Neck, 1989
All of the consultants considered needle biopsy an integral tool in management of a parotid neoplasm. If the tumor was limited to the superficial lobe of the parotid, they were split between ordering no further tests (Drs. Johnson and Glenn) and proceeding with a CT scan (Dr. Beckford).

Aplasia of the parotid glands with accessory parotid tissue
Pediatric Radiology, 2009Congenital absence of the parotid gland is a rare entity. Absence is most commonly unilateral, and is not associated with accessory glandular tissue. In the majority of reported cases, parotid gland aplasia is seen with craniofacial abnormalities or hypoplasia of other ectodermal structures, particularly the lacrimal glands.

Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America, 2009
Parotidectomy is a widely performed procedure for various indications, including benign and malignant conditions. For malignant neoplasms of the parotid gland or metastatic disease, it may be performed in conjunction with cheek or temple skin resection, facial nerve sacrifice, or composite resection of a portion of the mandible.
