Özet

We present a case of Warthin tumor (WT) exhibiting lipomatous metaplasia. This rare histopathological feature can mimic lipomatous lesions, particularly in hypocellular samples, and should be recognized as a potential diagnostic pitfall. Recognition of this feature is important to avoid diagnostic errors.
