Oncocytic lipoadenoma of the salivary gland is a rarely encountered tumor. A 56-year-old man presented with a two-year history of a slow-growing mass of the left parotid gland. Computed tomography scan with contrast showed a 7x6.5x6 cm well-circumscribed solid parotid mass of the left superficial and deep lobe. Fine-needle aspiration yielded oncocytic cells exclusively, suggesting Warthin tumor or an oncocytoma. Left total parotidectomy was performed. A diagnosis of oncocytic lipoadenoma was made. At six-month follow-up no evidence of recurrence has been noted. Oncocytic lipoadenoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of oncocytic proliferations and oncocytic tumors in the parotid gland.

Oncocytic lipoadenomas are a rare sub-category of fat-containing tumors of the salivary glands. These tumors are characterized by their oncocyte-predominant epithelial component admixed with mature adipocytes. This condition has been rarely reported to affect the parotid and the submandibular glands.

Oncocytic lipoadenoma (OL) is a rare salivary gland tumor characterized by the presence of oncocytic cells and mature adipose tissue. To date, only 30 cases of OL have been reported in the English-language literature. We present 3 additional OL cases involving the parotid, including a synchronous presentation with paraganglioma of the right carotid bifurcation.
