Parotidectomy is the treatment of choice for tumors in the parotid gland, with the modified Blair is the most common incision used. In our medical center, the incision is tailored to the size and location of the specific parotid tumor. This retrospective analysis aims to determine the incidence of complications and to assess the relation between the mass and scar characteristics in patients who had undergone parotidectomy.
The scar characteristics of patient who had undergone parotidectomy for benign neoplasms at our medical center between 2013 and 2019 will be evaluated. Patients will complete a questionnaire regarding the occurrence of complications.
