The article discusses the rare case of lymphadenoma in the parotid gland, a tumor not commonly reported or mentioned in textbooks. The authors present a 74-year-old man who presented with a solitary mass in his parotid gland, initially suspected to be a pleomorphic adenoma or Warthin's tumor. A biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of lymphadenoma, characterized by anastomosing islands of epithelial cells in a dense lymphoid stroma. The tumor lacked sebaceous differentiation and showed no cytological atypia or abnormal mitotic activity. The authors highlight the difficulty in diagnosing this rare tumor due to its indistinct appearance and the need to rule out other similar tumors. They also emphasize the importance of proper recognition to avoid diagnostic confusion.The article discusses the rare case of lymphadenoma in the parotid gland, a tumor not commonly reported or mentioned in textbooks.
