ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
The Warthin's tumor is characterized by its frequent occurrence in the parotid tail and multifocal presentation. Superficial or total parotidectomy was advocated by many surgeons due to its multifocal nature. Recently, with the advancement of various radiologic diagnostic methods, more conservative surgical management with low morbidities can be considered since an accurate pattern and site of the tumor can be determined. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Authors retrospectively studied 20 cases of pathologically diagnosed Warthin's tumor for clinical pattern, tumor site in parotid gland, recurrence and complication rate according to different surgical methods. Patients were divided into two groups Group II received enucleation and Group II received either superficial parotidectomy or total parotidectomy.RESULTS:
Post operative complication rate was low in enucleation group, compared with parotidectomy. There was no difference in the recurrence between the two groups.CONCLUSION:
Enucleation is an effective method in treatment of solitary or multifocal Warthin's tumors.
