Abstract
We report a case of 'matured' lipoblastoma occurring within the parotid gland of a 7-month-old male. This benign fatty tumor is considered to represent localized continuation of fetal fat development into the post-birth period. At least 7 cases have been reported in the head and neck region, but this is the first known occurrence within a salivary gland.Entities:
