Abstract
116 cases of parotid tumours are examined from the histological, clinical and therapeutical point of view. The difficulty of diagnosis between benign and malignant tumours, the relative frequency of the latter, the latent malignancy of mixed tumours and their frequent recurrences after simple surgical removal are considered. The total parotidectomy with preservation of the facial nerve is proposed. By this surgical technique a radical removal of the tumour is obtained without damaging the function of the nerve. A restricted or a more radical surgical treatment as well as irradiation may be adopted in some cases.Keywords
