Imaging of Facial Nerve With 3D-DESS-WE-MRI Before Parotidectomy: Impact on Surgical Outcomes
CONCLUSION: Preoperative FN imaging with 3D-DESS-WE-MRI facilitated anatomical identification of FN and its relationship to the tumor during parotidectomy. This modality reduced operation time for FN identification, but did not significantly affect postoperative FNP rates.PMID:37634641 | PMC:PMC10462904 | DOI:10.3348/kjr.2022.0850 (Source: Korean Journal of Radiology)

Reconstruction of a Spinal Accessory Nerve Defect Using Vascularized Vastus Lateralis Motor Nerve Graft
We report the first successful case in reconstructing a spinal accessory nerve defect after total left parotidectomy with radical neck dissection, using a vascularized vastus lateralis motor nerve graft and an anterolateral thigh flap based on the lateral circumflex femoral system, with great shoulder function outcomes even after postoperative radiotherapy. A branch of vastus lateralis motor nerve perfused by the accompanying descending branch of lateral femoral circumflex vessel was used as a nerve graft, and was repaired in an end-to-end manner. The patient underwent postoperative radiotherapy to the area of operation. A...

Readability and quality of online patient health information on parotidectomy
CONCLUSION: Current online patient health information on parotidectomy is too difficult for the public to understand, and it exceeds the reading levels recommended by Health Education England and the American Medical Association.PMID:37606526 | DOI:10.1017/S0022215123000336 (Source: Journal of Laryngology and Otology)

An Uncommon Salivary Gland Swelling- Parotid Duct Cyst and Its Management
AbstractCysts in the parotid region are more common in the gland than in the duct. Isolated cyst of parotid duct is a rare presentation. The treatment for most of the cystic lesions of the parotid or the parotid duct is the excision of the cyst with superficial parotidectomy. However, these lesions can be approached intra-orally for marsupialization achieving the same surgical results with less morbidity. This paper presents a rare case of parotid duct cyst which was managed by intraoral drainage and marsupialization. A 53-year-old female presented with swelling in the right cheek, associated with frequent fluid drainage i...

True Oncocytic Acinic Cell Carcinoma: A Case Image
AbstractA 67-year-old female with a history of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) presented with right sided otalgia and a 2-3 cm firm, tender right posterior parotid mass. Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) established a diagnosis of acinic cell carcinoma (AciCC). Further workup demonstrated lung nodules which were confirmed by FNAB to represent metastatic AciCC. A right radical parotidectomy with sacrifice of the facial nerve, segmental mandibulectomy, and selective neck dissection (levels II-IV) was performed. Microscopically, the tumor displayed an infiltrative border with a solid multi...
