    Summary

    A protracted upper left genital tumefaction was caused by a cystic lesion in the parotid gland. Surgical removal via total parotidectomy, preserving the facial nerve, successfully treated this rare condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Head and Neck Surgery
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Parotid gland tumors can present with varied clinical manifestations.
    • Cystic lesions of the parotid gland are uncommon but require thorough evaluation.
    • Parotiditis can sometimes be associated with neoplastic or cystic processes.

    Observation:

    • A case of upper left genital tumefaction with protracted development is presented.
    • The tumefaction was found to be caused by a cystic lesion of the masseteric lobule of the left parotid gland.
    • The patient had a background history of parotiditis.

    Findings:

    • The cystic lesion of the parotid gland was the underlying cause of the genital tumefaction.
    • Complete surgical excision of the parotid gland (total parotidectomy) was performed.
    • The facial nerve was successfully conserved during the surgical procedure.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights an unusual presentation of a parotid gland cystic lesion.
    • Total parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation is an effective treatment.
    • Understanding the pathogenetic, clinical, and therapeutic aspects is crucial for managing such rare conditions.
