Sialoblastoma.

Tumours of the salivary gland are very uncommon in children. We present a case of sialoblastoma, a very rare congenital salivary-gland tumour, initially recognised on antenatal ultrasound. After histological diagnosis, a superficial parotidectomy was performed at 21 days of age with preservation of the facial nerve. There is no recurrence at2 years.
