Abstract: We report a case of a benign lymphoepithelial lesion of the parotid gland in a patient with progressive generalized lymphadenopathy (PGL) related to human immunodeficiency virus. Serologic studies and immunoperoxidase studies for lymphocyte subsets, which have not previously been reported in this lesion, suggest involvement of an intraparotid lymph node by PGL rather than Sjogren's syndrome.
