Loyal capsular dissection of parotid pleomorphic adenomas
1993
Abstract Local capsular dissection as described by Hancock 11 for the treatment of parotid pleomorphic adenomas is discussed. The results of 71 primary parotid pleomorphic adenomas are described, including a 5.6% recurrence rate. This method has the advantage that less facial nerve weakness and Frey's syndrome are seen than with superficial or complete parotidectomy. The recurrence rate appeared to be somewhat higher than with most other series.
