Abstract
Warthin's tumor is the second most common tumor of the parotid gland after pleomorphic adenoma. It is well known to occur as bilateral and multiple patterns. The incidence of extraparotid Warthin's tumor (EPWT) is about 2.7% to 12%, peri-parotid and upper cervical area are the most common sites. Warthin's tumor with synchronous intraparotid and extraparotid area is extremely rare, only a few cases have been reported. We report a-71-year old man with unilateral swelling of the parotid area and upper neck, pathologically confirmed Warthin's tumor with literature review.
