We report the case of a patient who presented with cystic lymphoid hyperplasia of the right parotid gland as the index diagnosis of HIV infection. Histological examination of the excised parotid gland revealed a solid-cystic lymphoepithelial lesion with a non-keratinous squamous epithelium, which grew into the lymphoid component via anastomosing cords and islands. These anastomosing cords and i...
