[MRI and CT of parotid diseases in HIV-positive patients].
We report five cases of HIV patients with parotid pathology during a period of one year. All patients (4 men and 1 woman between the ages of 32 and 47 years) had a MRI or a CT confirmation of the parotid gland lesion. Three patients exhibited parotid gland cysts, one a nonspecific chronic inflammation and one an enlargement of the parotid gland with some benign lymphoepithelial lesions. Two patients underwent ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy. The cytology examination confirmed the benignity of the lesions. Finally, we expose the clinical management of parotid enlargements in HIV-positive patients.
