Necrotizing sialometaplasia of the parotid gland is infrequent and can be mistaken as a malignant disease. Its etiology is thought to be an insufficient blood supply. Bilateral involvement of this disease in parotid glands has been rarely reported in the English literature. We report a case of necrotizing sialometaplasia diagnosed after superficial parotidectomy due to bilateral parotid masses in a 69-year old heavy smoking female.
腮腺的坏死性涎腺化生较为少见，容易误诊为恶性疾病。其病因被认为是血供不足。该病很少在英语文献中报道双侧累及腮腺。我们报告一例 69 岁的老年女性，因双侧腮腺肿块行腮腺浅叶切除术，术后诊断为坏死性涎腺化生。该患者有重度吸烟史。
