Venolymphatic malformations (VLM) are the rare congenital disorders but the parotid gland VLMs are the rarest. Most of the parotid lesions present with unilateral swellings. Aetiology is unknown. Interestingly, this case came in OPD with the macroglossia and only complaint was cosmetic problem. Diagnosis was confirmed on the basis of Magnetic resonance imaging which is gold standard. Doppler ultrasonography showed low flow. Intra lesion electro cautery was done. There is need to focus on malformations and work to find out the causes.

Background: Different parotid tumors differ in terms of treatment strategies due to their distinct biological behaviors. Time-dependent diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (t-dMRI) can characterize and quantify the cytological indexes, and then aid the differential diagnosis of various tumors. However, the value of t-dMRI in the analysis of parotid gland tumors remains unclear.

Frey syndrome is a late complication after parotidectomy and represents an aberrant regeneration of the auricular nerve after its damage. The degree of manifestation can vary from minor hyperemia to the inability to eat in public places. As it turned out, the etiology of this syndrome is much broader than we might have assumed, as evidenced by the data of domestic and foreign literature.

Various approaches and techniques have been developed to address parotid neoplasms over the years. This article reflects on the integration, modification, and refinement of these techniques over a decade of clinical practice. This article provides a narrative description of the evolution of a head and neck oncologic surgeon's approach to parotid neoplasms.

Objective: A nanometer-sized vesicles originating from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs), called exosomes, have been extensively recognized. This study defines the impact of BMMSCs and their derived exosomes on proliferation, apoptosis and oxidative stress (OS) levels of CP-induced parotid salivary gland damage.
Methods: BMMSCs were isolated from the tibia of four white albino rats and further characterized by flowcytometric analysis.
