Abstract
Hemangiopericytomas are uncommon neoplasms of vascular origin that mostly arise from extremities, retroperitoneum, and pelvic fossa. They are rarely found in the parotid gland. A 35-year-old female patient pre- sented with a svvelling in the right preauricular region.Fine-needle aspiration biopsy performed twice yielded an extraordinary amount of blood. A cytological diagno- sis could not be made. Computed tomography showed a homogenous, well-shaped mass in the parotid gland. Superficial parotidectomy was performed.Histopathological diagnosis was made as hemangioperi cytoma. No evidence for local recurrence or distant metastasis was seen within a follow-up of 36 months.

Abstract
Hemanjiyoperisitoma daha çok ekstremiteler, ret- roperiton ve pelvik fossa, nadiren de parotis be- zinde gelişen vasküler bir tümördür. Otuz beş ya- şındaki kadın hasta sağ preauriküler bölgede şiş- likle kliniğimize başvurdu. İki kez uygulanan ince iğne aspirasyon biyopsisinde olağan dışı miktarda kan geldiği görüldü. Sitolojik tanı konulamadı. Bil- gisayarlı tomografide parotis bezinde yerleşmiş, iyi sınırlı kitle saptandı. Yüzeyel parotidektomi ile tü- mör tamamen çıkarıldı. Histopatolojik incelemede hemanjiyoperisitoma tanısı kondu. Hastanın 36 ay içinde yapılan kontrollerinde lokal nüks veya uzak metastaza rastlanmadı
