“…1 Salivary gland heterotopia is classified into two categories; intranodal and extranodal. 2 Intranodal variety is the most common. In infants salivary gland tissue is present in almost all lymph intraparotid and periparotid lymph nodes.…”

“…Heterotopic salivary tissue can be found in many sites, and most importantly intraparotid, periparotid, and upper cervical lymph nodes [1,3,4]. Noteworthy, a malignant neoplasm arising from such tissue may provoke a quest to hunt for an unknown primary lesion, especially when it arises within a lymph node.…”

“…Of particular clinical relevance, ectopic salivary tissue can even be found in intraparotid, paraparotid, and upper cervical lymph nodes [3,4]. Such salivary tissue may give rise to many neoplasms.…”

“…It is unclear whether the lymphoid tissue is reactive or neoplastic response. Some authors consider that the lymphoid component with typical germinal centers represents previously residual lymph node tissue, may result from a response to the epithelial cells which has got entrapped there; so called-hetertropic theory [9,23]. This theory may provide an explanation for the appearance of Warthin's tumour in location in which lymph nodes were not commonly found.…”

A 50-year-old male patient attended the outpatient unit of Manipal college of dental sciences (MCODS), Manipal, India, presenting with a painless swelling on the right lower side of the face since five years. It was insidious in onset and gradually increased to its present size. There was no history of pain, bleeding, trismus, parathesia or discharge from swelling during the course of enlargement, history of fever or altered salivary flow. His medical history was noncontributory with the exception of being a heavy smoker for the last 10yrs. Patient's family history was negative regarding similar complaints.Extra-oral examination revealed a large, localized roughly oval swelling in the right preauricular region measuring about 3.2 X 3.5 cm of normal temperature. The overlying skin appeared normal with no evidence of scar, sinus, discoloration or punctum. On palpation, the swelling was soft and fluctuant in anterior region while slightly hard post-auricularly. Skin over the swelling was mobile and pinchable. The right ear lobe was slightly raised and lymph nodes were not palpable.Intra-oral examination revealed that the swelling extended anteroposteriorly from retromolar area to lateral faucial pillars and inferiorly it extended 2-3 cm below the lower border of mandible. There was no obliteration of buccal sulcus superiorly or inferiorly. The swelling was non tender and orifices of the parotid gland appeared to be normal. Stimulation of the parotid gland yielded normal salivary flow with normal consistency, quantity and colour. Other intra-oral findings were non-contributory.
