A clinical observation to diagnose parotid hemangioma is presented in this article. A hemangioma can be made to distend by blocking its venous outflow. If a distended hemangioma is located within the parotid gland, it stretches the parotid capsule. Thus application of pressure over parotid venous outflow causes the hemangioma to bulge, thereby stretching the parotid capsule. It makes the outline of the gland clinically apparent. This observation is useful to differentiate a hemangioma present in the parotid gland from one that is placed outside the gland like an intramuscular hemangioma of the masseter muscle or internal jugular phlebectasia.

“…Examples of the latter includes intramuscular hemangioma of the masseter muscle and hemangioma in the infratemporal fossa [7,11]. The observation may also be helpful to differentiate parotid hemangioma from internal jugular phlebectasia [12].…”

Five adult patients with vascular malformations in the parotid region are described. Three of these patients had lumps in the parotid gland clinically indistinguishable from parotid tumours: one had a diffuse swelling of the check, and the fifth had a pulsatile tumour in the deep lobe of the gland. Two patients had a characteristic sign-the lump in the cheek became more obvious, both visually and on palpation, when the masseter muscle was tensed. In 3 of the patients calcified opacities, resembling phleboliths, were demonstrated on plain X-ray examination. This is only the third report of vascular malformations of the parotid region in the British literature; no other report of a pulsating tumour within the parotid gland has been found in a search of the world literature.
