Abstract
|
|
|
This is a case report on the lipoma of the parotid gland. Lipomas are common soft tissue neoplasms found only rarely in the region of the parotid gland, and therefore often not considered in the initial differential diagnosis of a moss presenting
in
this region. Clinically they can be confused with other beingn lesions and there was no reliable methods to make a preoperative diagnosis of the lipoma until 1980's; however, CT allows a specific diagnosis to be made in virtually all cases. We
experienced-that CT imaging permit the preoperative diagnosis of the lipoma, so could remove it preserving the parotid gland.
