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.

“…However, it remains under controversy for the management of parotid gland osteolipoma, as well as lipoma. Several methods have been proposed for managing the parotid lipoma, including enucleation or excision with a small border of parotid gland for encapsulated intra or paraparotid lipomas, super cial parotidectomy and total parotidectomy 10,22,23 . Unsurprisingly, super cial parotidectomy is preferred by most authors.…”

Background Osteolipoma is an uncommon benign tumor containing mature adipose tissue with bone metaplasia foci. It is rarely observed in head and neck region as compared to the lipoma, especially in the region of parotid gland. Case presentation: We report the first case of intraparotid osteolipoma with its clinical, radiographic and pathological findings. A 47-year-old men presented with an immovable mass in his left cheek with a 10-year evolution. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans showed a 3.2-cm fat-containing mass involving in the left parotid. The patient was taken to the operating room for excision of the mass and the final pathologic diagnosis was osteolipoma. Due to its rarity and clinical significance, we also reviewed the osteolipoma presenting in major salivary gland regions. Conclusion Intraparotid osteolipoma is an extremely rare neoplasm originating from adipogenic tissue, which should be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of parotid tumor.

“…Trauma is one of the causes of lipoma, and several cases of ordinary lipoma of the parotid gland following trauma have been reported. 10 The fact that the SMG is protected by the mandible, with lesser exposure to the outside environment compared to the parotid gland may be a possible explanation for the difference in the occurrence of ordinary lipomas of the parotid gland and SMG. In this case, the patient denied a history of trauma to the neck and oral cavity, and the tumor occurred in the medial side of the SMG, so the relationship with trauma seems to be negligible.…”

Lipomas are the most common soft tissue lesions occurring in the salivary glands but have a very low incidence. Lipomas commonly occur in the parotid gland, and lipomas in the submandibular gland (SMG) are rare. Until recently, ordinary lipomas of the parotid gland and some variants of lipomas of the SMG have been reported. However, few reports of ordinary lipomas occurring within the SMG exist in the literature. We report an extremely rare case of ordinary lipoma within the right SMG of a 65-year-old man. The tumor measured a 2.0 × 1.8 × 2.7 cm, was a well-capsulated homogenous yellow mass, which was composed of mature adipose tissue. A partially mixed area with salivary gland tissue was observed. There has not been much research on lipomatous tumors from the SMG because of their rareness. Most lipomatous tumors in the parotid gland are known as ordinary lipomas, but more research is needed to determine whether they can be applied to the SMG. Thus, this report will be instrumental in the understanding of lipomatous tumors of the SMG.
