[Metastatic parotid tumors. Review of 28 cases].
A series of 28 patients with tumors metastatic to the parotid gland are reported. The most frequent histologic types were squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma. Most primary tumors occurred in the head and neck. A review of similar cases published in the literature reveals the lack of uniform criteria for the appropriate therapeutic approach for metastatic parotid gland tumors.
