Benign and malignant tumors can arise from any of the structures contained within the parapharyngeal space. Such tumors are very rare, however.

متن کاملTransoral Resection of Giant Parapharyngeal Space Tumors via a Combined Surgical Approach
Introduction: Parapharyngeal space (PPS) tumors account for 0.5% of the head and neck neoplasms. Based on the evidence, 80% of these tumors are of a benign nature.
