Objective: To study the clinicopathologic features of parotid adenolymphoma. Methods: Twenty-six cases of parotid adenolymphoma were collected, investigated the clinicopathologic features by light microscopy with review of the literatures. Results: The patients included 21 male and 5 female. The age of patients ranged from 45 to 78 years (median =61.3 years). All cases were presented a painless, slow-growing parotid and circumscribed mass. A cut surface of the specimen showed a grayish-brown mass with totally encapsulated in all cases. Eosinophilic epithelial cells and reactive lymphocytes were observed by light microscopy. Epithelium mostly presented in papillary arrangement, intensive interstitial lymphocytes was contained in the tumor. Conclusion: As rare clinical benign tumor and generally found in elderly men, parotid adenolymphoma usually occurred in the lower pole of the parotid gland, and commonly occurred as a single focus in one parotid gland. Cigarette smoking was an important inducement in the development of the disease. We could make the final diagnosis based on its unique pathologic features.
