DT 9408 AU Redleaf MI; Bauer CA; Robinson RA; Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, University of; Iowa Hospitals, Iowa City. SO Arch Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg. 1994 Apr;120(4):414-6. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/94220273 AB Parotid enlargement is common in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1. We present a case of cytomegalovirus infection of the parotid gland in a patient with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. This case is notable because fine-needle aspiration provided the diagnosis. We therefore present a quick and inexpensive method of detecting a potentially fatal infection that has previously been unrecognized by the medical community.
