Large pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid: Report of a case
1989
A case of 51-year-old male with a large parotid tumor was presented. It took 12 years between his first notice of a little finger tip sized lump in the left parotid and removal of the lump which had grown to a huge size. Excision of the tumor was carried out with preservation of the entire facial nerve. The excised tumor was 96×76×75mm in size and weighed 240g. Histological examination revealed the typical features of a benign pleomorphic adenoma. There was no evidence of recurrence after a follow-up period of four years.
