  • Title: Intraparotid hemangioma in an adult. Case report and review of the literature.
    Author: Chuong R, Donoff RB.
    Journal: Int J Oral Surg; 1984 Aug; 13(4):346-51. PubMed ID: 6434455.
    Abstract:
    We have reported a case of a vascular malformation within the parotid gland of an adult. The first symptom was acute onset of pain and swelling, consistent, in retrospect, with a thrombophlebitis and associated vascular congestion. Although the hemangioma of the parotid is not uncommon in young children, it is rare in the adult. Several clues to the diagnosis have been reviewed, all absent in the case reported. The potential confusion with primary salivary pathology is emphasized by this report.
