Abstract
Warthin's tumors are the second most frequent benign tumors of the parotid gland representing 6-10% of
all tumors of the salivary glands. Multicentric Warthin's tumors are more common than any other salivary
gland tumor. Most of the multifocal Warthin's tumors are unilateral, whereas bilateral Warthin's tumors are
much more uncommon; bilateral Warthin's tumors are metachronous with few synchronous cases having
been described in the literature.
