THE diagnostically significant fact that "vascular tumours are the characteristic tumours of the parotid gland in the first year of life"1 , 2 has been omitted from many standard medical textbooks, is underemphasized in published reports dealing directly with hemangiomas of the parotid gland and appears to form no part of the average physician's information concerning parotid disease.
