  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Three cases of tuberculosis of the parotid gland are reported with consideration on the route of infection. Histological examinations indicated that two cases were resulted from lymphogenous infections. The origin of the other case was obscure. Preoperatively, only one case (Case【II】) having a fistula formation was properly diagnosed as tuberculosis. Case I, a 82-year-old female with slight facial weakness was misdiagnosed as malignant tumor, and Case 【III】, a 20-year-old female, was diagnosed as mixed tumor.

 Since 54 cases of parotid tumors including 25 mixed tumor cases were experienced in our clinic during the identical period, the incidence of tuberculosis of the parotid gland seems rather high in comparison with those reported elsewhere.

 We emphasize that tuberculosis of the parotid gland should be included in the differential diagnosis of the parotid mass.
