  3. Introduction • A parotidectomy is the surgical excision (removal) of the parotid gland, the major and largest of the salivary glands. • The procedure is most typically performed due to neoplasms (tumors), which are growths of rapidly and abnormally dividing cells. Neoplasms can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous).

  4. Symptoms Parotid tumors often cause: • swelling in the face or jaw that usually isn't painful • numbness, burning or prickling sensations in the face, • or a loss of facial movement.

  5. Types of Parotidectomy • Superficial Parotidectomy • Total Parotidectomy

  6. Treatment Parotid tumor treatment usually involves surgery to remove the tumor which include: • Removing part of the parotid gland. • Removing all of the parotid gland. • If the tumor contains cancer cells, the doctor may recommend additional treatments, such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
