title: [Intraparotid lesions in HIV infection].
abstract: HIV-related lesions of the parotid region. A case of parotid enlargement in a 43-year-old male with unsuspected HIV infection is reported. Lesions consisted in lymphonodal changes, epi-myoepithelial islands and cysts lined by squamous epithelium. It is suggested that it is possible to recognize an unsuspected HIV infection, when the first clinical involvement is in the parotid region.
