Abstract:
Intraparotid facial nerve schwannomas are rare, their preoperative diagnosis is difficult, and there are controversies about how to proceed when they are suspected intraoperatively. We present two cases of intraparotid facial nerve schwannoma that were diagnosed during parotid surgery, and describe the procedure and follow-up performed.
