Introducción: el nevus azul celular es una tumoración melanocítica dérmica benigna. En ocasiones, puede ser falsamente diagnosticada como lesiones malignas, entre ellas, el melanoma. Caso clínico: se trata de una mujer de 37 años que presentó una masa parotídea izquierda de cuatro meses de evolución correspondiente con un nevus azul celular. Discusión: la región de la cabeza y cuello es la tercera en frecuencia, tras la sacrococcígea y las extremidades. Ante una tumoración melanocítica, es importante la confirmación diagnóstica, debido a las similitudes, tanto clínicas como anatomopatológicas, del nevus azul celular con el melanoma maligno. Conclusiones: es muy importante el diagnóstico diferencial correcto, para lo cual es de ayuda el uso de las tinciones inmunohistoquímicas. El tratamiento de esta tumoración es la exéresis quirúrgica con márgenes, esto presenta un comportamiento benigno y baja tasa de recidiva.
Introduction: Cellular blue nevi is a benign dermal melanocytic tumor. Occasionally, it can be falsely diagnosed as malignant lesions, including melanoma. Clinical case: This is a 37-year-old woman who presented with a left parotid mass of four months of evolution, corresponding with a cellular blue nevi. Discussion: The region of the head and neck is the third in frequency, after the sacrococcygeal and the extremities. During the study of a melanocytic tumor, diagnostic confirmation with a biopsy is important, due to the similarities, both clinical and pathological, of cellular blue nevi with malignant melanoma. Conclusions: the correct differential diagnosis is very important, for which immunohistochemical study is helpful. The treatment of this tumor is the surgical excision with margins, presenting benign behaviour and low recurrence rate.

The present report aimed to describe the main characteristics of the parotid salivary mucocele in an adult male rabbit, which presented with a painless fluctuating mass with fluid content. Owing to the need for repeated fluid drainage, surgical excision was the chosen mode of treatment. Preoperative evaluation included radiography and blood analysis. The patient underwent surgical excision of the affected gland. Inhalation anesthesia was maintained by means of isoflurane and the cardio-respiratory parameters were monitored throughout the surgery. A bipolar electrocautery was used to assist in the incision and polyglactin 910 and nylon were the suture materials used in the wound closure technique. Post-operative medications included analgesics, anti-inflammatory agents and antibiotics. Histopathology of the excised glandular tissue revealed a mixed inflammatory infiltrate, fibroblasts, hemorrhage and hyperemia. The observations in this case suggest that surgical excision of the affected gland is the treatment of choice for the management of mucocele in companion rabbits, which has already been identified for other animals. Periodic acid-reactive Schiff staining confirmed the diagnosis of salivary mucocele. The complementary investigations helped to rule out the differential diagnosis and indicated a favorable prognosis, in view of the fact that the case was successfully resolved without complications or recurrence.(AU)
O presente relato teve como objetivo descrever as principais características da mucocele salivar parotídea em um coelho macho adulto, que apresentou uma massa flutuante indolor e com um conteúdo líquido em seu interior. Devido à necessidade de repetidas punções deste fluido, optou-se pela excisão cirúrgica como forma de tratamento. A avaliação pré-operatória incluiu radiografias e análises sanguíneas. O paciente foi submetido ao tratamento cirúrgico com excisão da glândula afetada. A anestesia inalatória foi mantida com isoflurano e os parâmetros cardio-respiratórios foram monitorados durante a cirurgia. Um eletrocautério bipolar foi utilizado para auxiliar na incisão e os fios poliglactina 910 e nylon foram utilizados na técnica de sutura. As medicações pós-operatórias incluíram agentes analgésicos, anti-inflamatórios e antibióticos. A histopatologia do tecido glandular removido revelou infiltrado inflamatório misto, fibroblastos, hemorragia e hiperemia. As observações neste caso sugerem que a remoção cirúrgica da glândula afetada seja o tratamento de escolha no manejo da mucocele em coelhos de companhia, o que já vem sendo identificado para outros animais. A coloração do ácido periódico reativo de Schiff confirmou o diagnóstico da mucocele salivar. Os exames complementares ajudaram a excluir as doenças que fazem parte do diagnóstico diferencial e indicaram um prognóstico favorável, tendo em vista o fato que este caso foi resolvido com sucesso, sem complicações ou recorrência.(AU)

A glândula parótida é uma glândula salivar maior, que abriga um feixe vasculonervoso e está situada no espaço parotídeo, um arcabouço ósseo e muscular. Ela pode ser avaliada por diferentes exames de imagem, principalmente pela ultrassonografia (USG), a tomografia computadorizada (TC) e a ressonância magnética (RM). Faz-se necessário o conhecimento de sua condição de normalidade para compará-la à de afecção, pois procedimentos cirúrgicos são frequentemente requeridos como meio de tratamento. A maioria dos pesquisadores e profissionais que manejam essa glândula referem a necessidade de estudos mais aprofundados, visto que o conhecimento acerca do assunto é limitado e suas patologias e manejo são pouco explorados e contraditórios na literatura
The parotid gland is a major salivary glands, which houses a neurovascular bundle and is situated in the parotid space, a bone and muscular framework. It can be assessed by different imaging tests, mainly by ultrasonography (USG), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Is knowledge necessary of its normal condition to compare it to the condition, since surgical procedures are often required as a means of treatment. Most researchers and professionals who handle this gland refer the need for further studies, since knowledge on the subject is limited and its pathologies and management are underexplored

Pseudoaneurysm of internal maxillary artery (IMA) after trauma is rare, and most cases reported are caused by maxilla-facial blunt trauma. Pseudoaneurysm is discontinuity in the vascular wall leading to an extravascular hematoma that freely communicates with the intravascular space producing pulsatile hematoma rapidly. A 44-years-old woman presented with a pulsatile swelling and pain in the left parotid region. She underwent the masticatory muscle reduction using needle injection in dentistry 1 month ago. The left facial pulsatile swelling developed after the procedure immediately and uncontrolled bleeding occurred on the day of visit to our institution. We performed emergency angiography and diagnosed pseudoaneurysm of left IMA. We treated by embolization with Histoacryl Glue through left IMA. IMA total occlusion was confirmed and symptoms improved. Pseudoaneurysm following blunt trauma of the face have been reported but are few. Furthermore, there is no report of IMA pseudoaneurysm due to direct injury by needle. Recently, many cosmetic surgery procedures using injection techniques have been performed, and it is necessary to pay attention to the direct vessel injury by the needle. And endovascular therapies can give early recovery with minimal morbidity and avoids injury to the facial nerve and its branches.

Depression of facial contour after parotidectomy is still challenging to many of surgeons. A 68-year-old man presented with a 4-month history of a painless swelling in both parotid area. The mass was multiple and fixed at the parotid region. We conducted a parotid duct preserving bilateral superficial parotidectomy by one-stage operation to remove the multiple tumors. A lazy S incision was made in both preauricular area and the peripheral branches of the facial nerve were identified using surgical landmark. After dissecting the branches of the facial nerve and parotid duct, main parotid duct was preserved but only small fine ductules from the superficial lobe were ligated. Parotid gland was excised from its anterior aspect with about 1 cm of normal parotid tissue margin. The patient was followed up for 6 years to evaluate postoperative parotid gland function and the computed tomography (CT) was taken. Patient was satisfied with no significant complication such as sunken changes in facial contour, facial nerve function. As far as we know, it is the first study to compare long-term soft tissue contours of soft tissue of duct preserving superficial parotidectomy with duct sacrificing superficial parotidectomy by means of CT findings.

A sialo-cutaneous fistula is a communication between the skin and a salivary gland or duct discharging saliva. Trauma and iatrogenic complications are the most common causes of this condition. Treatments include aspiration, compression, and the administration of systemic anticholinergics; however, their effects are transient and unsatisfactory in most cases. We had a case of a patient who developed an iatrogenic sialo-cutaneous fistula after wide excision of squamous cell carcinoma in the parotid region that was not treated with conventional management, but instead completely resolved with the injection of botulinum toxin. Based on our experience, we recommend the injection of botulinum toxin into the salivary glands, especially the parotid gland, as a conservative treatment option for sialo-cutaneous fistula.

Veins of the head and neck exhibiting anatomical variations or malformations are clinically significant. Anatomical variation in the external jugular vein is very common. However, anatomical variation in the retromandibular vein is rare. In this paper, we report a rare case of complete absence of the retromandibular vein. In the absence of the retromandibular vein, the maxillary vein divided into anterior and posterior divisions. The posterior division joined the superficial temporal vein to form an atypical external jugular vein, and the anterior division joined the facial vein to form an anonymous vein. In clinical practice, radiologists and surgeons use the retromandibular vein as a guide to expose the branches of the facial nerve during superficial parotidectomy. Therefore, absence of the retromandibular vein is a hurdle during this procedure and may affect the venous drainage pattern from the head and neck.

It is difficult to distinguish nodular fasciitis (NF) from other neoplasm of the parotid gland, especially pleomorphic adenoma (PA) by fine needle aspiration cytology. A 39-year-old female noticed a mass in the parotid region. The aspirate material showed cohesive parts composed of the cells that had oval or spindle-shaped nuclei and relatively abundant cytoplasm and some cells with plasmacytoid features. The background substance was fibromyxoid. PA was diagnosed based on the cytologic findings. Subsequently, parotidectomy was performed and NF was diagnosed based on histologic and immunohistochemical findings. NF in the parotid region is rare and may be misdiagnosed as other benign or malignant tumors of the parotid gland. The clinical history of rapid growth and the presence of mitoses and inflammatory cells help to distinguish NF from PA. In addition, immunohistochemical stains for smooth muscle actin and CD68 are useful to confirm the diagnosis of NF.

Glomus tumors are rare neoplasms that originate from the glomus bodies, an arteriovenous anastomosis with a specialized vascular structure. The most common site for these tumors is the subungal region of the fingers. Occasionally, glomus tumors are found in the middle ear, trachea, nasal cavities, stomach, and lungs. The occurrence in the parotid regions is very rare. While multiple glomus tumors in the whole body are thought to represent only 10% of all cases, instances of multiple tumors in the neck have not yet been reported in the literature. We report a case of double glomus tumors in the submandibular and parotid regions.

Mycobacterium abscessus es una de las micobacterias de crecimiento rápido asociadas a infecciones localizadas de heridas post traumáticas y quirúrgicas, infecciones crónicas pulmonares e infecciones cutáneas diseminadas en pacientes inmunosuprimidos. Raramente han sido descritos infecciones en región parotídea por micobacterias de crecimiento rápido. Aquí se reporta el caso de una infección en lóbulo superficial de la glándula parótida de pacientesin compromiso inmune, sin cirugías previas ni traumas aparentes, causado por Mycobacterium abscessus. Estas micobacterias deben ser consideradas en el momento de realizar el diagnóstico tanto clínico como laboratorial, ya que son bacterias emergentes y pueden presentarse de manera inusual, de modo a no demorar el diagnóstico del agente etiológico, debido a que requieren prolongada antibioticoterapia y son bastante resistentes a los antibióticos, especialmente el M. abscessus, que es una de las más resistentes
Mycobacterium abscessus is one of the fast-growing mycobacteria associated to localized infections of post-traumatic injuries, surgical wounds, pulmonary chronic infections and disseminated cutaneous infections in immunosupressed patients. Fast-growing mycobacteria infections of the parotid region have been rarely described. We report the case of a Mycobacterium abscessus infection of the superficial lobe of the parotid gland without immune compromise, previous surgeries or apparent trauma. Thesemycobacteria should be considered at the time of clinical and laboratory diagnosis, as they are emerging bacteria and could present in an unusual manner, in order not to delay the diagnosis of the etiological agent because they require long antibiotic therapy and are pretty resistant to antibiotics specially M. abscessus which is one of the most resistant

The parotid is the largest salivary gland in humans producing an essentially serous secretion, which normally reaches the oral cavity through a sole duct (the parotid duct) after the latter making its way through the buccinator muscle to reach the mucosa lining the mouth at the level of the cheek. The present study reports on a rare case of double parotid duct found during the dissection the right side of the face of a cadaver of a 46-year-old male individual. The superior (Dl) and inferior (D2) ducts were 26.49 mm and 37.25 mm long, respectively. Based on the diameter of both ducts (Dl and D2) taken in the posterior (3.05 mm and 2.84 mm, respectively) and mid (2.84 mm and 2.68 mm, respectively) thirds, as well as on the histological findings, both ducts were considered to be main parotid ducts. These two ducts merged at the level of the anterior third forming one sole opening into the oral cavity. The data hereby reported are relevant to the various clinical and surgical procedures involving the parotid gland.
La parótida es la glándula salival más grande presente en el hombre y su producto de secreción, básicamente seroso, es normalmente dirigido hasta la cavidad oral, a través de un único canal parotídeo que, luego de perforar el músculo buccinador, desemboca en la mucosa de la mejilla. Este trabajo muestra un caso raro de doble canal parotídeo hallado durante la diseccción de un cadáver de sexo masculino, de 46 años de edad, en el lado derecho del rostro. Los canales superior (DI) e inferior (D2), presentaron una longitud de 26,49 mm y 37,25 mm, respectivamente. En base a los diámetros presentados por los canales en los tercios posterior (DI 3,05mm; D2 2,84 mm) y medio (DI 2,84mm; D2 2,68 mm) y de acuerdo con los hallazgos histológicos, ambos fueron considerados principales. En el tercio más anterior los canales se fusionaron, presentando una única apertura en la cavidad oral. Las informaciones presentadas en este documento son relevantes para diferentes procedimientos clínicos y quirúrgicos que tengan relación con la glándula parótida.

Lipoma is most common tumor that compromises 4% to 5% of all benign neoplasm, but in oral cavity it is uncommon. In oral cavity, lipoma presents painless, asymptomatic , slow growing, but sometimes it grows to larger size causing deformities, mastication and speech difficulties. While lipoma in commonly affects female patients (68-73%), oral lipoma appears more frequently in male patients. The majority of oral lipoma is seen after the age of forty (uncommon in children). Lipoma of oral cavity and maxillofacial region occurs most commonly in the parotid region, followed by the buccal mucosa, lip, tongue, palate, mouth floor, gingiva in order. A treatment of lesion is surgical excision with recurrence not expected. In this paper we present the case of a patient who has Lipoma in the mouth floor.
