Abstract:
:An unusual recurring mass presented in the parotid region in a young woman. The presentation of the mass was unusual in that it varied with the positioning of the patient's head and with exertional and emotional activity. Prior surgical attempts at cure were unsuccessful. Biplanar subtraction radiographic techniques were used to pinpoint the anatomical problems. This lesion is a vascular anomaly, which requires specific attention to its morphology in order to effect a permanent cure. This case of parotid venous ectasia with its unusual symptom complex was successfully treated, and more than four years have passed without recurrence.
