Parotid tumors are usually divided into two categories: benign and malignant. Benign tumors can be clinically cured through surgical excision and other measures after early detection. Malignant tumors can be effectively controlled after early detection and timely treatment, but they cannot be completely cured and will have the risk of recurrence and metastasis. Benign parotid tumor 1. If the tumor can move, the boundary is clear and there is no pressure pain, it usually means benign parotid tumor. If the tumor is small, it can be left untreated and can be reviewed regularly. If the tumor is large and affects daily life and work, it can be treated by surgery, and this condition can be cured. 2. If it is a mixed tumor, both the tumor and the parotid tissue around the tumor should be completely removed to prevent recurrence or deterioration. If it is a hemangioma, fibroma or lipoma, simply removing the tumor can achieve a cure. The effect of surgical treatment is usually better and can reach the standard of clinical cure. If malignant parotid tumor is detected at an early stage, the whole parotid gland, the adherent facial nerve and the adjacent lymph nodes can be removed through surgery in time. The later the malignant parotid tumor is found and the higher the degree of differentiation is, the worse the treatment effect is. Therefore, when you find a lump on your face, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time and undergo a series of examinations such as ultrasound and CT, which can help to detect and diagnose malignant parotid tumor at an early stage and take timely measures for treatment.
