 AB    Cystic lymphoepithelial lesion is an infrequent disorder involving the
       saliva glands mainly the parotid gland; however, its frequency has
       increased coinciding with the epidemics of HIV-1 infection. Three cases
       of parotid lymphoepithelial lesion in patients with HIV-1 infection, 2
       of whom were hemophiliacs and one an ex-intravenous drug addict, are
       presented. In all the cases the lesion was a painless slow growth right
       submandibular mass, with no history of inflammation. Two of the patients
       had a contralateral tumor of the same characteristics which was not
       studied. Fine needle aspiration puncture was performed in the three
       patients although diagnosis was obtained by pathologic study following
       superficial parotidectomy. Cystic lymphoepithelial lesion is an entity
       to be taken into account on differential diagnosis of cervical masses in
       patients with HIV infection. In individuals with severe
       immunosuppression treatment should be conservative.
