Résumé
Multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland are very rare. We intend to analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment results of multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland managed at our hospital. The study included 21 patients of multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland from January 2010 to December 2020. Twenty-one cases of multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland were identified among 994 cases of parotid surgery, with a frequency of 2.1%. Multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland occurred in all males and one female. Except for one case, all of them involved histopathologic neoplasms. Warthin tumor (n=19, 90.5%) was the most common. Among 21 lesions, there were 9 patients of right parotid gland, 4 patients of left parotid gland, and 4 patients of bilateral parotid gland. The main symptoms were slowly enlarging mass within the parotid gland (n=20), followed by incidental detection (n=1). Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland. Preoperative imaging tests, clinical examinations, and careful palpation during surgery are important for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

RESULTS
RESULTS
Twenty-one cases of multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland were identified among 994 cases of parotid surgery, with a frequency of 2.1%. Multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland occurred in all males and one female. Except for one case, all of them involved histopathologic neoplasms. Warthin tumor (n=19, 90.5%) was the most common. Among 21 lesions, there were 9 patients of right parotid gland, 4 patients of left parotid gland, and 4 patients of bilateral parotid gland. The main symptoms were slowly enlarging mass within the parotid gland (n=20), followed by incidental detection (n=1).
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of multiple synchronous neoplasms in the ipsilateral parotid gland. Preoperative imaging tests, clinical examinations, and careful palpation during surgery are important for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
