Background/Objectives: Extracapsular dissection has the advantage of reducing complications by minimizing tissue loss of the parotid without intentionally exposing the facial nerve in patients with benign parotid tumor. However, there has been controversy over the surgical results. Thus, the surgical outcomes of extracapsular dissection for benign parotid tumor was compared to those of superficial parotidectomy.Materials & Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted with 132 patients who received surgery for benign parotid tumor in our center from January 2014 to December 2018 retrospectively. Results: A total of 132 people were enrolled, with 62 people receiving extracapsular dissection, 38 people receiving partial superficial parotidectomy and 32 people receiving superficial parotidectomy. No significant difference was found between the three groups regarding complications such as facial nerve palsy, Frey's syndrome, or first bite syndrome. Operation time and hospital stay was significantly short in extracapsular dissection group. Conclusion For well-selected cases, extracapsular dissection can be considered as an option for surgery of benign parotid tumor.
