Parotid tumors account for 80% of salivary gland tumors and are benign in 80%. Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign tumor.Malignant tumors account for 10 to 20% of parotid tumors and are dominated by mucoepidermoid carcinoma.Magnetic resonance imaging is crucial in the diagnosis of these tumors and can suggest the histologic type.We report a series of 50 patients followed in the ENT department of HMI-MV who underwent surgery for a parotid gland tumorThe aim of our work is to focus on the radiological aspects of parotid tumors (MRI) and to correlate with the definitive anatomical pathological result this will confirm that the MRI aspects of parotid tumors can orient towards the histological typeOur study showed that MRI aspects of these tumors can be used for histological diagnosis and have the same predictive value as pathological examination of the parotid gland.
