Abstract

Fibrous histiocytomas are commonly occurred in the skin of the extremeties and rare in the head and neck region. Fibrous histiocytomas in general are considered benign tumors. But deep fibrous histiocytomas have more poor prognosis than cutaneous counterparts and tendency of local invasion and recurrence. Wide surgical excision is the treatment of choice due to high recurrence rate and potential malignancy. We presented a rare case of benign fibrous histiocytoma occurred in the superficial lobe of the right parotid gland, showing palpable mass with pain.
