ABSTRACT
An extremely rare case of benign cystic teratoma of the parotid salivary gland is presented with a review of the literature. It was found in a 35-year-old Thai woman farmer who had had a history of a movable mass at the left parotid gland region for about 20 years. The microscopic examination revealed benign cystic teratoma of the parotid salivary gland. There is only one reported case in the literature, so, this is the second reported case.

Eighty-seven cases of primary hepatic carcinoma associated with opisthorchiasis were reviewed. The prevalence of liver carcinoma among 154 cases of liver fluke infection was 56.6%. The tumours were classified histologically as cholangiocarcinoma in 67 cases (77%), hepatocellular carcinoma in 9 (10.3%), mixed hepatocholangiocarcinoma in 4, squamous carcinoma in 2, and undifferentiated carcinoma in 5. Metastases, found in 71 cases, occurred most frequently in the regional lymph nodes and lungs. There were numerous or moderate numbers of liver flukes in most of these cases.
