Pleomorphic adenoma, Parotidectomy, Facial nerve, Segmental parotidectomyAbstract
Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most prevalent benign tumor of the salivary glands, usually involving the parotid gland. Surgical treatment with segmental parotidectomy can be a secure, efficacious, nerve-protection route for superficial lobe lesions. observation can potentially provide an alternative to surgery considering that they may potentially face malignant transformation despite the risks associated with surgery as well as on the quality of life.
