Abstract Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis of the parotid gland is a very uncommon chronic inflammatory salivary gland disease. Clinically, it presents as a slow-growing painful. Histologically, it showed a chronic inflammation and fibrosis. This case report highlights the clinical, radiological and histological aspects of this disease. We report unusual case of chronic sclerosing sialadenitis of the parotid in a 12-year-old man. CT detected a mass of tissue density in the right parotid. The evolution was marked by spontaneous fistula allowing a surgical biopsy. The mass regressed after corticosteroids. The follow-up was normal. The location, age and presentation make our case very interesting.
