The pathologic processes involving the parotid gland area include a vast, heterogeneous group of lesions, consisting of dysembryopathies, traumas, acute and chronic inflammation, degenerative manifestations, benign tumours and both primary and secondary malignancies. This gland, or rather the whole parotid gland area, can be a site of secondary invasion, due to the presence of intra- and peri-parotid lymph nodes; the metastases usually deriving from small, sometimes unrevealed tumours. Treatment of parotid gland tumours is mainly surgical; in most cases the choice of therapy depends on the clinical features and the results of preoperative diagnostic tests. This paper presents our experience during the last three years of clinico-surgical activity in this field and discusses the treatment of primary and secondary tumours of the parotid gland area.
