ABSTRACT

The chondroma is a benign tumor of mesenchymal origin, consisted of a cartilaginous tissue, and occurs rarely in the maxillofacial area. Its most frequent site in the craniofacial complex is the maxillary bony structure, although chondromas of the soft tissues have also been described in the literature. From the clinical viewpoint, it appears as a painless, hard elastic lesion of slow asymptomatic growth, with gradual expansion. The treatment of choice is surgery. This paper presented a clinical case of a tumor located in the deep lobe of the parotid gland. The initial diagnosis, after the fine needle aspiration test, was pleomorphic adenoma, which was then subjected to histopathologic testing to obtain the final diagnosis of chondroma. Concluding that although uncommon in this localization, it should always be kept in mind as possible diagnosis. It was concluded that when facing an uncommon parotid tumor, one must take into account the possibility of a chondroma in the differential diagnosis.
