Abstract
- Hemangiomas are relatively rare tumors representing approximately 0.4% of all the salivary gland tumors and occur predominantly in the parotid. Most of the hemangiomas appear during the first year of life; however, are uncommon in adults. Moreover, the rich fat hemangiomas in the parotid are extremely rare. Magnetic resonance imaging is the most important radiologic methods for the diagnosis of the disease as its high resolution of soft tissue which helps to show the relationship with the adjacent structures.
