title: [Métastases of carcinoma of the kidney to the salivary glands. A case of intraparotid metastasis (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors first report the histopathological distribution of 111 parotidectomies carried out between 1965 and 1975. They then describe a case of a malignant tumour of the parotid which was shown by histological examination to be a metastasis of a carcinoma of the kidney, this being the first manifestation of the primary tumour. Finally, the authors review the literature concerning metastases of carcinoma of the kidney to the ENT area. They feel that the great rarity of parotid localisations is due to the fact that they may be confused with an acinous carcinoma of the parotid if histochemical stains are not used.
