Abstract :
Sialolipoma is a rare neoplasm of salivary glands, described as a distinct entity by Nagao et al. in
2001. Thirty‑six cases of sialolipoma in minor and major salivary glands have been reported thus
far in addition to the two new cases of sialolipoma arising in the major salivary glands in this study.
Thirty‑six cases of sialolipoma published in English language reports were analyzed considering
gender, age, location, size, duration of symptoms, treatment mode, follow‑up, and histologic findings.
Congenital sialolipomas were considered in this study. The first case occurred in a 45‑year‑old
female and presented as a localized swelling in right parotid area. The second case occurred in an
18‑year‑old female as a swelling in the left parotid region. On histopathological examination, these
lesions were diagnosed as sialolipoma.
