Abstract

Rhinosporidiosis of the parotid duct is extremely rare. The sporadic cases of rhinosporidiosis are seen all over the world but more than 90% of the cases are reported from South Asia and Brazil. We report five male patients with parotid duct rhinosporidiosis ranging from eighteen to seventy-two years of age, hailing from the eastern part of India. All of them presented with right parotid swelling. Clinical examination revealed cystic swelling. Imaging studies of these patients suggested sialocele and abscess. Cytology was non-diagnostic. All five patients underwent complete surgical excision of the cyst. Histopathological examination of cysts confirmed the diagnosis of rhinosporidosis of the parotid duct. Regular follow-up was done and all were disease-free even after five years of follow-up.There is a need for a high index of suspicion of parotid swelling of this nature in endemic areas.
