✦ Synopsis

BACKGROUND.

Clinical and radiologic assessment of parotid masses cannot distinguish reliably between benign and malignant lesions. The utility of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) of parotid masses at a cancer referral center (where clinicians may be especially adept at diagnosing parotid gland malignancies) remains controversial.

METHODS.

Between January 1986 and June 1996, 482 parotid glands were resected at the University of Texas, M. D. Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC). A preoperative FNA result was available for 147 of these resections (30%), (corresponding to 154 preoperative FNAs). The results of 154 consecutive preoperative FNAs were compared with the corresponding histopathologic diagnoses.
