Three cases of Kikuchi's necrotizing lymphadenitiswithout granulocytic infiltration presented to the ENT department as cervical lymphadenopathy with neutropaenia. Differential diagnosis from malignant lymphoma was difficult both clinically and histopathologically. Two recovered spontaneously without treatment within three months, one improved initially but was lost to follow-up after one month.

A 55-year-old woman was operated because of bilateral parotid tumours which appeared with an interval of three years. Histopathologically, both of the tumours had characteristics typical of acinic cell tumour, so-called clear cell type. Both tumours were regarded to be multifocal. In the case of bilateral parotid tumours, acinic cell tumour should also be kept in mind and total parotidectomy is the treatment of choice.
