A Rare Case Sebaceous Adenoma of the Parotid Gland in Patient with Steinert's Syndrome: Case Report

Year: 2026

Type: other

Abstract: Sebaceous adenoma is an extremely rare tumor located in the parotid gland. In the English literature, 13 cases have been reported. Sebaceous adenoma represents 0.5% of all monomorphic adenomas. The authors are presenting a case of sebaceous adenoma of the parotid gland in a 45-year-old male who presented with a mass in the left parotid area that had been gradually enlarging for two years without symptoms of pain. On imaging, a well-defined mass lesion in the left parotid region was seen eroding the overlying skin. Histopathological findings were consistent with sebaceous adenoma. Surgical excision is curative. The prognosis is excellent, with a low recurrence rate. The present case report will increase awareness and possibility of this rare tumor occurring at an unusual site, thereby avoiding any chance of misdiagnosis.
