Abstract:
Parotid gland tumor is the most common salivary gland tumor and surgery is the main treatment method. The conventional surgery for the treatment of parotid tumor is mostly performed by using large incision which often causes complications and aesthetic problems to patients. With the advancement of medical technology, deeper understanding of histopathology and anatomy by the surgeons, as well as patients′ higher demands on aesthetics and functions, the surgical methods and incisions have been constantly improved. This review focuses on the evolution of surgical approaches and incisions for the treatment of parotid tumors and provides an outlook based on the preliminary application of endoscopically assisted parotid tumor resection.
