“…Recurrence rate of parotid lipoma is very low and reported as 5% in well capsulated tumours. 8,9 A largest series on lipomatous lesions of parotid on 70 cases was studied by Starkman et al 7 revealed M:F ratio of 2.3:1 with 92.5% cases in superficial lobe. Fine needle aspiration was noticeably inaccurate in preoperative diagnosis.…”

Introduction: Lipoma is the most common benign tumour of mesenchymal origin. They are quiet uncommon in head and neck region, constituting approximately 13% of all lipomas. Parotid gland lipomas are extremely rare with incidence ranging from 0.6% to 4.4%. Case report: We are reporting a rare case of parotid gland lipoma in a 42 year male presented with a slow growing painless swelling on the right side of the neck without any signs and symptoms of facial nerve degeneration. Conclusion: These tumours are seldom diagnosed clinically but imaging methods and fine needle aspiration can help reaching a pre-operative diagnosis. Surgical removal is treatment of choice in symptomatic cases.

“…Lipoma is one of the most frequently encountered benign mesenchymal tumors that may originate from adipose tissue in any part of the body [3,4]. Rarely, it can develop in the parotid gland with reported incidence ranging from 0,6% to 4,4% among parotid tumors [3,5]. Lipoma may occur at any age, but most frequently between 40 and 60 years with a male predominance [5,6].…”

Lipoma of the parotid gland is extremely rare, accounting for only 0,6% -4,4% of all parotid tumors. We present a rare case of lipoma of the superficial parotid lobe. A 68 -year-old man, presented in our department with a mass of the left parotid region. Clinical examination revealed a mobile, soft, non-tender mass in the area of the left parotid gland. MRI concluded to a lipoma of the superficial lobe of parotid gland. Parotidectomy preserving the facial nerve was performed. No complication nor recurrence were noted after a follow-up of 12 months. Lipoma arising in the parotid gland is extremely rare. Resection of this tumor requires full exposure of the facial nerve and its branches.

“…MRI is the best imaging technique for diagnosis and localization of sialolipoma. 8 In this case report, preoperative diagnosis of bilobed sialolipoma could be made on ultrasonography and MRI. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) is also diagnostic for parotid tumours but its accuracy rate is 50% for sialolipoma.…”

Lipoma is a common benign mesenchymal tumour arising from adipose tissue. Adipose tissue is present in parotid gland so lipoma can occur in this gland. It is a rare tumour with an incidence of 0.6% to 4.4% of all parotid tumours. History of trauma is the most common initiating factor narrated by patients. Huge and bilobed lipoma of parotid gland is extremely rare. A rare case report of bilobed sialolipoma of parotid gland in 52years female is presented. Magnetic resonance imaging and fine needle aspiration provided the accurate preoperative diagnosis. The surgical management for this bilobed sialolipoma was done by enucleation with no complication of facial nerve. There was no recurrence in follow up.
