ABSTRACT
Superficial parotidectomy is the most widely accepted form of the treatment for benign parotid tumors. But the risk of postoperative complications for the treatment of a benign condition cannot be ignored. Recent studies suggest that conservative parotidectomy (partial superficial parotidectomy or extracapsular dissection) might be the reliable option for the resection of benign parotid tumors. Conservative parotidectomy showed similar recurrence rate and lesser post operative complications than superficial parotidectomy.
