AB  - Rhinosporidiosis is a benign chronic granulomatous infection caused by 
      Rhinosporidiosis seeberi (R. seeberi). Rhinosporidiosis is endemic in South Asia, 
      notably in Southern India and Sri Lanka. The common sites of involvement are the 
      nose and nasopharynx followed by ocular tissue. Rhinosporidiosis is also known to 
      involve many rare sites and may become disseminated to ocular in generalized 
      form. Rhinosporidiosis of parotid duct is extremely rare. The case presented here 
      is of 18-year-old male from the nonendemic zone of Nepal with a proliferative 
      mass in the parotid duct. Although rhinosporidiosis was not taken into 
      consideration in the clinical differential diagnosis, eventual histopathological 
      diagnosis confirmed rhinosporidiosis. Thus clinicians should be flexible in the 
      differential diagnosis of proliferative growth in the parotid duct, even in those 
      cases which are from nonendemic areas.
