Короткий опис (реферат):
ntroduction. Vascular anomalies of the parotid gland
are rare congenital defects and encompass variations
in vascular structure and arterial blood supply. Due
to the rarity of these defects, the diagnosis and treat-
ment of vascular anomalies of the parotid gland can
be complex and require an individualized approach.
Treatment of these anomalies may include conservative
methods or surgical interventions, depending on the
nature of the anomaly and the severity.
Case presentation. A 50-year-old woman with a right
parotid gland neoplasm was examined and a surgical
intervention was performed. During removal of the
mass, no large feeding vessels could be found. The
histopathological examination showed the presence
of venous vessels, arterioles, dilated ectatic venules
lined with flat endothelial lining, lymphatic vessels,
and smooth muscle. The immunohistochemical study
showed positivity for vascular markers. Based on labo-
ratory studies, a diagnosis of vascular malformation of
the parotid salivary gland was established.
Conclusions. Vascular anomalies of the parotid
glands in adults should be considered hyperplasias,
which can be easily removed without damaging the
gland’s structure, as they are more commonly located
at its periphery.
