Abstract
Primary Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the parotid gland is rare. A twenty-one-year-old man presented with a lesion that recurred two years after an excisional biopsy for a parotid gland mass. He underwent superficial parotidectomy. Frozen section examination suggested a diagnosis of Hodgkin’s lymphoma.The patient was treated by radiotherapy. A complete recovery was obtained after a 27-month follow-up.
