Cavernous vascular tumor of the accessory parotid gland.

Accessory parotid gland tumors are uncommon and account for only 1% to 7.7% of all parotid gland tumors. Only one case report of hemangioma of the accessory parotid gland in infancy has been issued, and no report is available on this condition in an adult. We present the case of a 44-year-old woman with an accessory parotid gland tumor, which was finally diagnosed as a cavernous hemangioma histopathologically.
