Small Incision Parotid Surgery

چکیده
Objective: To show utility of small incision (4 cm or less) in parotidectomy where incision is purely cervical. Study design: Prospective study. Setting: Tertiary care centre. Materials and Methods: In the study period of 7 years, from July 2008 to June 2015, 40 patients were included in this study, and were considered pre-operatively for possible attempt to perform minimally invasive small incision parotidectomy. All these patients with parotid swelling were included based on ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology. The exclusion criteria were malignancy, involvement of skin, facial nerve palsy and patients with tumour size more than 5 cm in one diameter. Conclusion: Small Incision Parotid Surgery (SIPS) can be a good procedure, if used judiciously, even for deep lobe tumour with proper visualization of the facial nerve, may prevent frey’s syndrome producing a very good aesthetic outcome.

Minimal incision in parotidectomy.
Conservative parotidectomy has been for years an effective and well-established technique. Recently, aesthetic considerations have been reviewed. A minimal pre- and retroauricular incision is proposed that does not extend to the hair-bearing skin. This reduces the length of the scar and the extent of the dissection improving aesthetic results. This is a retrospective study of 32 parotidectomies...
متن کاملCervicomastoidfacial versus modified rhytidectomy incision for benign parotid tumors.
UNLABELLED The modified rhytidectomy incision is an alternative to the classic cervicomastoidfacial approach for parotid surgery, camouflaging the scar in barely visible areas, resulting in better cosmesis. However, there are very few studies comparing the incidence of complications and functional results of patients submitted to parotidectomy through these two different approaches. OBJECTIVE...
متن کاملTreatment of Mandibular Condyle Fractures Using a Modified Transparotid Approach via the Parotid Mini-Incision: Experience with 31 Cases
Surgery for mandibular condyle fractures must allow direct vision of the fracture, reduce surgical trauma and achieve reduction and fixation while avoiding facial nerve injury. This prospective study was conducted to introduce a new surgical approach for open reduction and internal fixation of mandibular condyle fractures using a modified transparotid approach via the parotid mini-incision, and...
متن کاملFacelift approach with a hybrid SMAS rotation advancement flap in parotidectomy for prevention of scars and contour deficiency affecting the neck and sweat secretion of the cheek.
Tumors of the parotid gland are generally be removed by the standard external bayonet-shaped incision approach without reconstruction of the parotid bed. The disadvantage of this approach is frequently an obvious scar affecting the neck and a conspicuous hollow contour around the angle of the mandible in addition to a sweat secretion of the cheek (Frey syndrome). To overcome these disadvantages...
متن کاملMinimally invasive endoscopic-assisted resection of benign tumors in the accessory parotid gland: 5 case studies.
BACKGROUND A modified Blair's incision or standard facelift incision is recommended to remove tumors in the accessory parotid gland. These incisions frequently result in long and visible scars. Therefore, the authors have introduced an endoscopic approach via a small preauricular incision to achieve excision of benign tumors in the accessory parotid gland. METHODS The endoscopic surgical tech...
