Abstract
Parotid gland is the largest salivary gland of the body. Pleomorphic adenomas are the most prevalent benign parotid gland tumors. They can eventually grow to a size where they weigh several kilograms if not timely addressed. The 'pleomorphic' characteristics are attributed to the origin of the tumor from the connective tissue and epithelium. Pleomorphic adenomas often arise from the superficial lobe, further extending into the parapharyngeal space and gland's other deeper tissues. Common incidence is noted in females between 30 and 50 years. Tumors typically present as asymptomatic swelling and progress slowly. The cornerstone of treatment is surgical removal of the tumor mass, with great care being given to protect the facial nerve. Most of these tumors are observed with the involvement of the superficial lobe; only a few are observed involving the deep lobe. This case report presents an intriguing case of a pleomorphic adenoma of superficial and deep parotid gland in a 65-year-old male. The left side of the patient's face had a steadily increasing, asymptomatic swelling on admission. Magnetic resonance imaging of the neck revealed a pleomorphic adenoma of the superficial and deep parotid gland. The patient underwent surgical excision of the parotid gland, which was uneventful.
