Vascular neoplasms of the parotid gland are common in early childhood, particularly in females. We reviewed the clinical, histologic, and treatment details of 10 cases of hemangiomas and one case of lymphangioma that involved the parotid gland. Histologically, the cellularity and increased division figures in these lesions should not be interpreted as a sign of a malignant condition. A watchful expectancy for spontaneous regression and preservation of the facial nerve at surgery are advocated.
