Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study the feasibility and security of parotidectomy for parotid benign tumor by tracing cervical branch to expose facial nerve. METHODS Parotid benign tumor of 87 patients were studied.We exposed facial nerve by tracing main facial nerve branch、buccal branch、marginal mandibular branch and cervical branch in parotidectomy for parotid benign tumor and observed the function of facial nerve after operation.RESULTS The number of patients traced by main facial nerve branch- buccal branch、marginal mandibular branch and cervical branch group were 10、8、28 and 41 respctively,and the percentage of facial nerve injury after operation were 30%、37.5%、46.4%and 24.3%.The percentage of facial nerve injury was statistically different between the marginal mandibular branch group and the cervical branch group(P
