  • Title: Synchronous unilateral pleomorphic adenomas in the parotid gland: report of a case.
    Author: Coombes DM, Kaddour R, Shah N.
    Journal: Br J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2009 Mar; 47(2):155-6. PubMed ID: 18789563.
    Abstract:
    A 45 year old man presented with a swelling on the right side of his face of 12 months duration. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans revealed he did in fact have two discrete tumours of his right parotid gland. Following a superficial parotidectomy and dissection of the deep lobe, histopathology revealed both tumours to be pleomorphic adenomas. We discuss the clinicopathological findings and implications in contemporary surgical management of parotid neoplasms.
