Case of clear-cell oncocytoma of parotid gland and literature review

doi:10.7518/hxkq.2024.2023185

Abstract

Abstract:

Oncocytoma is a benign tumor of the salivary gland. Its incidence is very low and very seldom documen-ted in literature. Clear-cell dominant oncocytoma is even less common. The tumor’s clinical symptoms and imaging results are nonspecific, so distinguishing other salivary gland tumors (such as oncocytic carcinoma) from clear-cell renal carcinoma is difficult, possibly leading to misdiagnosis and maltreatment. Here, a case of clear-cell dominant oncocytoma was presented, and the relevant literature was evaluated to investigate the diagnosis and management of clear-cell dominant oncocytoma.

Key words: parotid gland, oncocytoma, clear cell renal carcinoma, histopathological
