SUMMARY: Giant cell tumors are considered tumors of mesenchymal origin, usually showing border-line or un- certain biological behavior, rarely located in the parotid gland. Three separate entities are distinguished –with the differential diagnosis between them being a real challenge
giant cell tumors of soft tissues, tenosynovial giant cell tumors and giant cell tumors of the bones. Giant cell tumor of the parotid gland presents relatively more ag- gressive biological behavior, while there have been re- ports in the literature mentioning associated carcinoma- tous component. This report presents the treatment of a patient with giant cell tumor of the parotid region, the diagnostic dilemma and a brief review of the literature.
KEY WORDS: Giant cell tumor, parotid gland, temporo- mandibular joint
