Oncocytoma of the parotid gland: Dilemma for the cytopathologist
We report a case of oncocytoma of the right parotid gland in a 32-year-old Indian male. Although the tumor was initially suspected on cytology, confirmation was possible only after histopathological examination. The main purpose of this case report is to discuss the cytological differential diagnosis of oncocytic lesions of salivary glands and simultaneously emphasize the importance of histopathology for arriving at conclusive diagnosis in such cases.
