[Parapharyngeal tumors: apropos of 14 cases].

Rev Laryngol Otol Rhinol (Bord)

ORL Clinique Saint Augustin, Bordeaux, France.

Published: August 1996

The author reports on fourteen parapharyngeal tumours, of which 7 are of parotidean salivary origin. The other etiologies, in particular 1 chemodectoma and 1 aneurysm of the internal carotid artery, justify a systematic arteriography with a CT scan. In surgery, 9 operations were performed via the purely cervical approach, and 5 via a combined cervical and transvelar approach. The endobuccal vault is limited and dangerous.
