Parotid Hemangioma Removal via a Microscopic Incision.

Hemangiomas constitute ~0.4% to 0.6% of all parotid gland tumors and are common in children but very rare in adults. In the absence of typical clinical manifestations, hemangiomas of the adult parotid gland often cannot be accurately diagnosed before surgery. Benign tumors of the parotid gland are typically treated through surgery. Three adult patients were diagnosed with benign parotid gland tumors before the operation and confirmed to have parotid gland hemangioma by pathology after the operation. The microscopically small incision surgical resection method the authors used in these cases proved to be a safe, effective, and minimally invasive method worthy of promotion and practical application by peers.
