Warthin’s tumor is the most common monomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland. It can be coexistent with other salivary gland tumors or can be metachronous, multifocal, unilateral, bilateral which perplexes the diagnosis hence delaying or over/under treating the ailment. Rare cases of Warthin’s tumor are described in young population especially young non-smoker females. We present a case of Warthin’s tumor arising in the left parotid gland of 20-year-old female.
