09-09, 14:00–14:30 (Europe/Istanbul), Head & Neck Oncology 4

<p>Various incisions are used in parotid surgery, yet they often result in visible scarring on the neck and potential deformities. The periauricular approach is feasible for parotid tumors across all levels of the parotid gland. Its cosmetic advantage lies in the smaller scar size that does not extend into the neck.</p>

<p>This study aims to demonstrate that the periauricular incision offers a cosmetically scar-free yet oncologically and functionally safe approach to parotidectomy. By presenting our surgical outcomes, we seek to support the wider adoption of routine parotid surgery. The presentation includes a wide range of surgical videos and images from various cases, highlighting the versatility, safety, and aesthetic advantages of the periauricular approach in parotidectomy.</p>
