Tolosa–Hunt syndrome with heterotopic salivary gland tissue and absence of internal carotid artery

Tolosa–Hunt syndrome (THS), heterotopic salivary gland and hypoplasia of internal carotid artery (ICA) are all rare entities. We have reported a case of all these three conditions included in a patient. We have postulated that the heterotopic salivary gland tissue might have caused the hypoplasia of ICA and also triggered the THS.
