Abstract
Long-term tumour recurrence rates and complications of endoscope-assisted partial superficial parotidectomy (PSP) are rarely reported compared to traditional open approaches. This retrospective study included 306 patients with superficial parotid benign neoplasms who were divided into an endoscopy group (endoscope-assisted PSP, n = 102) and a control group (conventional PSP, n = 204). There were no significant differences in clinical and pathological characteristics between the two groups, except age (P = 0.001). Three patients had confirmed recurrence during a mean follow-up duration of 125.1 months. Ten (9.8%) patients in the endoscopy group and 22 (10.8%) in the control group developed transient facial nerve palsy (P = 0.792), and recovered 6 months after the operation. Nine (8.8%) and 19 (9.3%) patients, respectively, suffered from Frey syndrome (P = 0.889). A sensory deficit of the auricle occurred in 24 (23.5%) and 57 (27.9%) patients respectively (P = 0.410). Patients in the endoscopy group were more satisfied with the postoperative scar than those in the control group (P < 0.001). This study demonstrated that the endoscope-assisted PSP can be curative, with better cosmetic outcomes than the conventional approach, and does not increase the incidence of postoperative complications or the local recurrence rate.

JAMA Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 2023; 149:1003-1010. [PMID: 37768672 PMCID: PMC10540055 DOI: 10.1001/jamaoto.2023.2981] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
Importance Limited literature exists on surgical outcomes after selective deep lobe parotidectomy (SDLP) with preservation of superficial lobe for patients with benign deep lobe tumors. Objective To compare the following factors for SDLP vs total parotidectomy for patients with benign tumors in the deep lobe: postoperative complications, including facial nerve paresis or paralysis, Frey syndrome, first bite syndrome, cosmetic defect, sialocele formation, and wound infection; and tumor control and recurrence. Design, Setting, and Participants This case series included 273 adults who underwent SDLP (n = 177) or total parotidectomy (n = 96) at a single tertiary care institution for benign parotid tumors located in the deep lobe or deep lobe and parapharynx from January 1, 2000, to December 31, 2020. Exposure Selective deep lobe parotidectomy vs total parotidectomy. Main Outcomes and Measures Incidence of postoperative complications and tumor recurrence. Results Among 273 patients (SDLP, 177 [65%]; 122 women [69%]; median age at surgery, 58 years [IQR, 46-67 years]; total parotidectomy, 96 [35%]; 57 women [59%]; median age at surgery, 59 years [IQR, 40-68 years]), the most common tumor was pleomorphic adenoma (SDLP, 128 of 177 [72%]; total parotidectomy, 62 of 96 [65%]). An abdominal dermal fat graft was less commonly performed for patients who underwent SDLP than those who underwent total parotidectomy (2 of 177 [1%] vs 20 of 96 [21%]; difference, -20% [95% CI, -28% to -11%]). The rate of great auricular nerve preservation was higher in the SDLP group than in the total parotidectomy group (84 of 102 [82%] vs 20 of 34 [59%]; difference, 24% [95% CI, 5%-42%]). No meaningful difference in length of hospital stay was found. The percentage of patients with House-Brackmann grade I immediately after surgery was 48% (85 of 177) in the SDLP group and 21% (20 of 96) in the total parotidectomy group (difference, 28% [95% CI, 16%-40%]). There were no clinically meaningful differences in rates of hematoma, sialocele, seroma, ear numbness, wound infection, or unplanned return to emergency department or operating room. The SDLP group reported a lower rate of Frey syndrome than the total parotidectomy group (1 of 137 [1%] vs 12 of 78 [15%]; difference, -15% [95% CI, -23% to -7%]), as well as a lower rate of facial contour defect (28 of 162 [17%] vs 25 of 84 [30%]; difference, -13% [95% CI, -24% to -1%]) and a higher rate of first bite syndrome (34 of 148 [23%] vs 7 of 78 [9%]; difference, 14% [95% CI, 5%-23%]). The percentage of patients with House-Brackmann grade I at their first follow-up visit was 67% (118 of 177) in the SDLP group compared with 49% (47 of 96) in the total parotidectomy group (difference, 17% [95% CI, 4%-30%]). There was no clinically meaningful difference in House-Brackmann grade after 1 year. Conclusions and Relevance Findings of this case series study suggest that SDLP can be considered an effective and even superior technique for management of benign tumors in the deep parotid lobe. Advantages associated with SDLP include reduction in need for reconstruction for facial contour defect and reduction in complications, such as immediate facial nerve weakness and Frey syndrome. The incidence of first bite syndrome was higher in the SDLP group. Tumor control was not compromised by SLDP.

Extracapsular dissection with a transparotid facial nerve dissection approach versus partial superficial parotidectomy for benign tumours in the tail of the parotid gland: a single-centre retrospective study of 89 patients. Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2022; 52:656-662. [PMID: 36127208 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijom.2022.09.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 08/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
The aims of this study were (1) to evaluate the transparotid facial nerve dissection approach (TFND), in which the intraparotid cervicofacial or temporofacial division is identified first through a superficial lobe incision; and (2) to compare extracapsular dissection with a TFND (ECD-TFND) with partial superficial parotidectomy with a retrograde approach (PSP) for benign tumours in the tail of the parotid gland with respect to surgical outcomes. Eighty-nine patients underwent PSP or ECD-TFND for benign tumours in the tail of the parotid gland: 49 were treated surgically with PSP and 40 with ECD-TFND. The mean ( ± standard deviation) surgical time did not differ significantly between the groups: 64 ± 22.4 min for PSP and 59 ± 19.8 min for ECD-TFND (P = 0.302). There was a significant difference in sialocele: 18 (36.7%) patients in the PSP group and four (10%) in the ECD-TFND group (P = 0.002). There was also a significant difference in facial nerve injuries: temporary paralysis was observed in 13 (26.5%) patients in the PSP group and two (5%) in the ECD-TFND group (P = 0.007). It appears that TFND is a viable and safe approach when performing ECD for benign tumours in the tail of the parotid gland. ECD-TFND should be preferred over PSP for benign tumours in the tail of the parotid gland.

The potential applicability of facial nerve monitoring as a navigation tool in parotid gland surgery. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol 2022; 89:230-234. [PMID: 36127267 PMCID: PMC10071533 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjorl.2022.02.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2021] [Revised: 01/13/2022] [Accepted: 02/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between the stimulation amplitude and the distance to the facial nerve. METHODS This study was designed as a prospective clinical study. A total of 20 patients (12 males, 8 females) were included. Partial superficial parotidectomy was performed in all patients with intraoperative facial monitoring. Measurements were made on the main trunk and major branches. Stimulation was started at 1 mA and incrementally increased to 2 and 3 mA's. The shortest distance creating a robust response (>100 mV) was recorded. RESULTS At 1 mA, 2 mA and 3 mA stimulation intensity, the average distance between the tip of the stimulation probe and the main trunk was 2.20 ± 0.76 mm (range 1-3 mm), 3.80 ± 0.95 mm (range 2-5 mm), 4.80 ± 1.05 mm (range 3-7 mm) respectively. The stimulus intensity was inversely proportional in respect to the distance between the nerve and the tip of the stimulus probe (P < .00). The same relation was present in the facial nerve major branch measurements (P < .00). CONCLUSION The proportional stimulation amplitude and distance to the facial nerve is thought to be a reliable auxillary method to assist the surgeon by facilitating the estimation of the distance to the facial nerve during extracapsular dissection and minimally invasive cases where the facial nerve isn't routinely dissected. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 3.

Abstract
Superficial parotidectomy has been the gold standard for surgical removal of benign mobile parotid gland tumours. The comparatively newer technique of extracapsular dissection, which involves careful dissection of the tumour itself without the need for formal gland excision, has gained popularity in recent years. Tumours can be removed via smaller incision, and the technique reduces the risk of Frey's syndrome (gustatory sweating) and hollowing at the site of surgery. The risk of facial nerve damage can also be lower with extracapsular dissection. If done carefully, the incidence of tumour recurrence, particularly for pleomorphic adenomas, is comparable with formal parotidectomy. We provide a brief update overview of the current evidence for extracapsular dissection in the treatment of benign parotid tumours and include several meta-analyses which provide evidence for the safety of the technique. We have also included our audited results of over 100 recent extracapsular dissections, with 0% incidence of permanent facial nerve weakness, reported Frey's syndrome and recurrence rates over the last 5 years.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and preliminary outcomes of using a postauricular-groove approach without endoscopic assistance for the excision of parotid tumors. Patients who underwent parotidectomy using a postauricular-groove incision were selected for this study. For patients in which parotidectomy was difficult, namely, for tumors located in the deep lobe area, the parotid gland sternocleidomastoid space was fully utilized, and the tumor was resected from the posterior plane. A total of fifty-eight patients with parotid tumor were enrolled and divided into superior lobe group (n = 46) and deep lobe group (n = 12). The difference in operation time (94 vs 119 min) and postoperative drainage (20.18 vs 45.33 mL) was statistically significant between the tumors in the superficial and deep lobes. However, postoperative cosmetic VAS score was 10 (extremely satisfied) for all patients. The incidence of transient facial nerve paralysis was comparable (8.7% vs 16.7%), and all of them resolved spontaneously within 3 months. No recurrence of tumors was found in either group in the median follow-up interval of 26.45 months (range 22.2-35.3 months), which was comparable to the result using the conventional "S" approach. After making full use of the parotid gland sternocleidomastoid space, the postauricular-groove approach demonstrated satisfactory facial nerve protection, as well as easy maneuverability without the risk of surgical complications for tumors located in the deep lobe area. Importantly, the postauricular-groove approach showed excellent cosmetic outcomes for all patients and should be considered an alternative approach for parotidectomy of selected cases.

Abstract
The impact of the extent of parotid surgery on postoperative complications has long been considered a topic of controversy. The aim of the current network meta-analysis (NMA) is to answer the following questions: (1) Does the extent of surgical resection of benign parotid tumors increase the risk of postoperative complications? (2) What is the best surgical intervention for treatment of benign parotid tumors that can provide an acceptable balance between tumor recurrence rate and other postoperative complications? A comprehensive search on PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane library was conducted to identify the eligible studies. The outcome was the incidence of tumor recurrence, facial nerve weakness (temporary [TFW] or permanent [PFP]), Frey's syndrome (FS), sialocele, and salivary fistula. The Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) accompanied by a random effect model and 95% credible intervals (CrI) were calculated using the GeMTC R package. Forty-four studies with a total of 7841 participants were included in the current NMA comparing five surgical interventions, namely enucleation, extracapsular dissection (ECD), partial superficial parotidectomy (PSP), superficial parotidectomy (SP), and total parotidectomy (TP). Enucleation showed the highest recurrence rate compared to ECD, SPS, SP, and TP. No statistical differences were observed concerning the recurrence rate when ECD, PSP, SP, and TP were compared together. There was an increased incidence of TFW and FS with the increase in the extent of parotid resection, while no significant difference was found when comparing enucleation with ECD and PSP. SP showed the highest incidence of PFP, and salivary fistula compared to ECD, PSP, and TP. The tumor recurrence rates in enucleation, ECD, PSP, SP, and TP were 14.3%, 3.6%, 3.7%, 2.8%, and 1.4%, respectively. The current NMA demonstrated that the risk of TFW and FS increases with the increase in the extent of parotid resection and that ECD and PSP can be considered the treatment of choice for benign parotid tumors, as both provide an acceptable balance between the incidence of tumor recurrence and facial nerve dysfunction.
