Parotid malignancies are a heterogeneous group of diseases that include 23 entities, all of epithelial origins. Non-epithelial tumours are rare, representing about 2-5% of all salivary gland tumours. Primary lymphatic tumours of the parotid are even rarer. The clinical appearance usually includes a variable history of slow growing painless, nodular mass that enlarges rapidly. The cytological evaluation should identify whether the parotid lesion is inflammatory or neoplastic, and if it is malignant or benign. On diagnosis of a salivary gland tumour, it is important to correctly classify the tumour especially if malignant in order to apply the correct treatment. There are presented two cases of rare malignant entities with lymphoid component located on parotid gland which presented difficulties in preoperative diagnosis.
