ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES@#The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a retroauricular hairline incision in partial superficial parotidectomy.SUBJECTS AND METHOD:
Twenty-three patients who underwent partial superficial parotidectomy via retroauricular hairline incision from 2014 to 2016 were enrolled in the study. Patient's characteristics, surgical outcomes and postoperative complications were assessed. Subjective cosmetic satisfaction was assessed using a visual analog scale 3 months after surgery.@*RESULTS@#In all 23 cases, parotid tumors were removed successfully via retroauricular hairline incision alone without any exposure failure. The mean operating time and the amount of postoperative drainage was 117.6 min (range, 75–163 min) and 51.5 mL (range, 25–91), respectively. Major complications such as permanent facial nerve paralysis and hematoma were not reported. The mean visual analogue scale score for subjective satisfaction with the incision scar was 9.0 (range, 6–10).@*CONCLUSION@#We conclude that partial superficial parotidectomy via retroauricular hairline incision for the treatment of benign parotid tumor is technically feasible and it provides excellent cosmetic outcomes without an increase in complications.
