Parotid hemangiomas constitute 1-5% of all salivary gland neoplasms. Here we present a case of a 3-month old female baby who was brought with a rapidly enlarging left parotid swelling and a cutaneous strawberry hemangioma over the face. Ultrasonography with color Doppler may be the only investigation needed in such a case to establish the diagnosis. Other investigative modalities like contrast enhanced Computerized Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) also helps in confirming the diagnosis. As this tumor regresses spontaneously in its normal course, no active intervention was done and the child is kept under follow up. CASe RepoRT A 3-month-old female baby was brought to the Pediatrics outpatient Department with a swelling in the left parotid region since birth,which has increased in size recently. There was no fever or excessive crying. Antenatal history was unremarkable and the baby was healthy otherwise. On clinical examination, there was a non-pulsatile swelling in the left parotid region. There was a cutaneous strawberry hemangioma noted on the left side of face in the trigeminal (V1 and V2) distribution [Table/Fig-1]. General health of the baby was normal. Blood counts and CRP was within normal limits. Sonography of the left parotid region was performed on Philips iU22 machine using a 7.5 MHz frequency linear array transducer. The left parotid gland was enlarged in size involving both the superficial and deep A Case of Parotid Hemangioma of Infancy: Role of Ultrasound and Doppler in the Diagnosis [Table/Fig-1]: Cutaneous hemangioma noted over the left side of face in the trigeminal (V1 and V2) distribution and a swelling in the left parotid region. [Table/Fig-2a,b]: (a) The left parotid gland appears enlarged in size and hypoechoic with lobulated contours. Multiple large anechoic vascular channels noted within. (b) Color Doppler reveals high density of blood vessels within the lesion. [Table/Fig-3a,b]: (a) Non-contrast images showed diffuse enlargement of superficial and deep lobes of left parotid gland with lobulated contour. (b) There was no evidence of any pressure changes in the form of erosion or scalloping in the underlying mandible. www.ijnmr.net Deepa Regina John et al., A Case of Parotid Hemangioma of Infancy: Role of Ultrasound and Doppler in the Diagnosis Indian Journal of Neonatal Medicine and Research. 2016 Jan, Vol-4(1): 10-12 11
