ABSTRACT
Neurilemmomas are benign tumors originating from the nerve sheath. These can arise from all kinds of cranial nerves. About 25% to 40% of all neurilemmomas are found in the neural structure of the head and neck. Neurilemmomas of the acoustic tumor are most common and there are several reports of neurilemmomas that developed in the facial nerve. The clinical presentations are generally insidious and the nature of the disease depends on the location and extent of the tumor. But intraparotid neurilemmomas are extremely rare. We experienced one case of intraparotid facial nerve neurilemmoma and report it with reviews of literature.
