Introduction: salivary gland tumors in children represent a low percentage of pediatric head and neck tumors; most of them are diagnosed in association with the Parotid salivary gland and present a higher proportion of malignancy than in adults.
Objective: to present a case with a diagnosis of Pleomorphic Adenoma: clinical symptoms, complementary examinations, treatment and evolution.
Case presentation: female patient, 13 years old, from a rural background and white race, attended the Maxillofacial Surgery consultation, in good general condition, accompanied by her parents, due to an increase in volume of a hard consistency, not fixed to deep planes ( mobile), asymptomatic, of 7 months of evolution and 3 cm in length located in the left parotid region. Ultrasound of soft tissues and neck was indicated, as well as contrast-enhanced facial mass tomography, which showed a mass in relation to the left parotid gland that captured contrast. In addition, complementary examinations and a fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) were performed, resulting in a benign parotid gland tumor (Pleomorphic Adenoma). Superficial parotidectomy was performed with preservation of the facial nerve. The patient progressed satisfactorily and continues to be followed up by consultation.
Conclusions: pleomorphic adenomas are discovered in practice as slowly growing asymptomatic masses; the size is variable and will always depend on the stage at which it is detected.
