Abstract
As Warthin's tumor is a comparatively rare salivary tumor, its diagnosis frequently worries us. ME (medical engineering) has made remarkable progress in recent years, therefore in the future we will have better diagnoses by using medical imagings.
We recently experienced two cases of Warthin's tumor, one in a man aged 58 and the other in a woman aged 62. Both underwent operations for tumor enucleation in the right parotid gland after the diagnosis using venous kinds of medical imagings.
Their progress are now good with no recurrence and no problems.
