Abstract
|
|
|
Warthin's tumor of the parotid gland is known as papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum or adenolymphoma. Warthin's tumor, classed as a monomorphic adenoma, ranks second to pleomorphic adenoma in the incidence of benign neoplasm of the parotid
gland.
Warthin's tumor is the most common multifocal parotid tumor.
Warthin's tumor have been reported to occur as bilateral and/or multiple unilateral tumors. Over the past 10 years, several reports have shown the incidence of Warthin's tumor in the parotid gland to have increased so that this tumor constitutes
14% to
30% of parotid neoplasms. We present a case of Warthin's tumor occurring in each parotid gland. (Korean J Otolaryngol 38:6, 1995)
