Abstract

We analyzed 7 cases of parapharyngeal space tumors and discussed our method of operation. In our department, we managed to resect the tumor without mandibular osteotomy. When this was possible, it meant the most minimally invasive surgery for the patient. This course has advantages in regards to post operation, duration of hospitalization and cosmetic results. In order to obtain operative fields, we dissected some structures from the cervical approach gradually. In the cases of neurogenic tumors, we resected the tumors after tumor reduction using CUSA. There was no recurrence after therapeutic resection, and there were fewer complications. From these results, we concluded that the decision regarding operative methods depends on the histology or the vascularity of the tumor rather than the size or the location.
