Abstract EN

Congenital unilateral agenesis of the parotid gland is a rare condition with only few cases reported in the literature.

A review of 21 cases in the available literature is presented in this article.

We report on a further case of a 34-year-old woman with agenesis of the left parotid gland and lipoma of the right cheek.

Clinicopathological characteristics of described cases in the literature were discussed.
