Surgical treatment of extensive tumors of the lateral face and auricular area by radical soft tissue and subtotal temporal bone excision with deltopectoral flap coverage.

A method of excision of extensive tumor in the parotid and peri-auricular area with a partial temporal bone excision in discontinuity, has been described. In selected tumors local control has been as satisfactory as following more radical en bloc soft tissue and temporal bone excisions and without significant morbidity or operative deaths. The results in 15 patients treated by this method are described. The authors believe that the small number of patients in this and other reported series does not accurately reflect the frequency of tumors which could be treated successfully by this method, but does reflect a reluctance to advise the better known radical en bloc temporal bone excision with its associated morbidity and operative mortality.
