Preservation of Salivary Function Following Extracapsular Dissection for Tumors of the Parotid Gland

Preservation of Salivary Function Following Extracapsular Dissection for Tumors of the Parotid Gland

Purpose: This study evaluated salivary function after extracapsular dissection (ECD) compared with partial superficial parotidectomy (PSP) and classic superficial parotidectomy (CSP) of benign parotid gland tumors. The authors hypothesized that ECD would be superior to PSP and CSP in preserving post...
