Intraductal papillomas have been mostly described in minor salivary glands but are extremely rare in the parotid gland. Consequently, limited information is available to guide otolaryngologists and pathologists in managing intraductal papillomas, specifically in the parotid gland. Diagnosing intraductal papillomas in this location poses significant challenges. In this report, the authors present a new case and first conduct a systematic literature review of the intraductal papillomas originating from the parotid gland. This study contributes valuable insights that can improve diagnostic accuracy, providing more precise treatments, and patient outcomes in cases of intraductal papillomas in the parotid gland.
