Abstract：Objective To evaluate clinical characteristics,pathology and imaging manifestation of multiple primary tumors (MPT) in parotid gland,and to analyze the value of enhanced CT in the deagnosis of parotid MPT.Methods Retrospectively analyze the medical histories of 22 patients with MPT among 285 patients with parotid gland tumors from 2013 to 2016.Results Seventeen cases were Warthin's tumor,accounting for 77.3％ of MPT in parotid gland.The detection rate of CT was 83.3％,higher than B-ultrasonography.For unilateral MPT in parotid gland,the detection rate of CT was 2 times of B-ultrasonography.Conclusion Warthin's tumor is the most common type of MPT in parotid gland.Enhanced CT examination may help find MPT in parotid gland before the surgery,which helps to make surgery plan.
