Background:
Parotid gland tumor is the most common salivary gland tumors. Benign tumors account for about 80% of parotid gland tumors. However, due to the special anatomical location of the parotid gland and the different pathology of the tumor, there are many complications after parotid gland tumor operation, which also seriously affects patients' quality of life.
Methods:
We summarized the improved operation of parotid benign tumor and developed new diagnostic and treatment strategies for parotid glands.
Results:
We found that the incidence of postoperative complications of the modified operation was significantly low, and the quality of life of patients was good during postoperative follow-up.
Conclusion:
This is an effective technique for benign parotid tumors, yielding improved functional outcomes - including cosmetic aspects, sensation and surgical complications.
