Abstract

Sebaceous lymphadenoma is a rare tumor presenting predominantly in the parotid gland. Most sebaceous lymphadenomas are composed of variably sized sebaceous glands admixed with salivary ducts in a diffuse lymphoid background. The treatment is complete surgical excision, and this tumor is rarely recurrent. Reported here is a case of sebaceous lymphadenoma of the left parotid gland in a 16-year-old boy. A left superficial parotidectomy was performed.
