This study details a parotid duct cyst, a benign tumor comprising 10% of salivary gland cysts. Diagnosis involved MRI, with surgical removal confirming the parotid duct cyst.

Area of Science:

  • Otorhinolaryngology
  • Surgical Pathology
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Salivary gland cysts encompass both benign and malignant types.
  • Salivary duct cysts are benign tumors, predominantly affecting the parotid gland.
  • These cysts constitute approximately 10% of all diagnosed salivary gland cysts.

Observation:

  • A 48-year-old male presented with a painless mass in the preauricular region of the right side.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided the surgical approach.
  • Superficial parotidectomy was performed for the mass removal.

Findings:

  • Histopathologic examination confirmed the mass as a parotid duct cyst.
  • The cyst was benign, aligning with typical salivary duct cyst characteristics.

  • This case highlights a common presentation of parotid duct cysts.

    • Implications:

    • Accurate diagnosis of parotid duct cysts is crucial for appropriate management.
    • Surgical excision remains a primary treatment modality for symptomatic cysts.
    • Understanding the clinical presentation aids in differentiating benign from potentially malignant salivary gland lesions.
