Özet: Osteoma is a slow-growing benign osseous neoplasm. The mandible and paranasal sinuses are the most effected sites at maxillofacial region. Clinically, this neoplasm can be silent for years without any symptom and can be diagnosed when it becomes big enough or observed coincidentally during radiological investigations. In this paper a case of peripheral mandibular osteoma of 66 year-old male is presented. The patient was referred to our ENT clinic with suspection of parotid neoplasm because of a swelling on right preauricular region.
