An Intraparotid Schwannoma Mimicking A Warthin’s Tumour

Abstract: In this report, we describe the rare presentation of a cystic intraparotid facial nerve schwannoma (IPFNS) in a young female who initially presented with a painful unifocal parotid mass gradually enlarging over 5 years. Preliminary imaging and cytology offered this to be a Warthin’s tumour. Here we describe the limitations of current diagnostic tools in the workup of intraparotid cystic lesions and highlight the importance of keeping rare tumours in mind to optimize pre-­surgical management.
