Abstract
Two young women with a mass in the parotid gland are described. In both the diagnosis of tuberculosis was only made on postoperative histological examination of the excised specimens. Since tuberculosis of the parotid gland can exist in isolation, this diagnosis should be considered in areas where tuberculosis is common.
