Background: The parotid gland is a major salivary gland in the human body located in both   the cheeks. It accounts for approximately 3-6% of all head and neck masses. Three fourths of  all parotid masses are benign. However, they are very diverse in nature and in intimacy with  important anatomical structures. An accurate diagnosis and surgical management of some
rarely presenting parotid masses is further challenging to the medical team because of limited   literature and experience with these masses.  Methods: A retrospective study was done at our Tertiary Care Institute studying different  approaches towards rarely presenting parotid masses during last two years.  Results: A giant pleomorphic adenoma with 14 cm diameter managed with total superficial  Parotidectomy, a difficult to diagnose parotid mass at angle of mandible which was confirmed  to be Schwannoma post excision and a large Paediatric lymphangioma managed with  Sclerotherapy are discussed here.  Conclusion: All were managed without mortality, with minimal morbidity and no recurrence   noted till date. Our experience will be of great use to physicians and surgeons while dealing  with rare benign parotid masses.
