The carcinoma of the mucoepidermoid glands is a separate subtype of the malignancy that attacks these glands. The three primary cell types that make up these structures are squamous cells, mucus-secreting cells, and intermediate cells. (1) Masson and Berger characterised mucoepidermoid carcinomas specifically for the first time in 1924. Since then, they have been acknowledged as a prevalent type of salivary gland tumour. Variable proportions of intermediate, mucous, and epidermoid cells make up the bulk of the tumour. The intermediate cells are typically the most common, and their appearance can range from small basal cells with little basophilic cytoplasm to larger, oval cells with copious pale eosinophilic cytoplasm that seems to merge with epidermoid or mucous cells. These cells may also contain eosinophilic or very light cytoplasm or facial nerve cancer . Mucocytes, the cells responsible for producing mucus, can exist single or in groups. These cells have a tiny, peripherally locat

Standard treatment for advanced facial nerve schwannomas and hemangiomas is surgical excision. The surgical removal approach is determined by the size of the tumour and whether or not both ears are affected. Primary parotid cancer refers to malignancies that originate in the parotid gland; secondary tumours, such as those that spread from the skin, are referred to by the latter term (i.e., metastatic parotid cancer). Other diseases, such as skin cancer, mucoepidermoid tumor , can also cause facial paralysis, but this is far less common. Cancer can cause temporary or permanent facial paralysis by causing damage to the facial nerve. Typically, this facial weakness develops gradually over several weeks or months. During cancer surgery, it is routine practise to amputate the facial nerve if the disease has spread to that area. Even if the patient has no history of facial paralysis, it may be necessary to sever the face nerve in order to perform cancer surgery. In the absence of face reanim

Most tumours in the salivary glands develop in the parotid glands, which are one of the major salivary glands. Location of these glands is in close proximity to the ears. Even while most tumours in the parotid gland are harmless, some can develop into cancer if left untreated. This non-traditional parotidectomy and facelift approach successfully removes the tumour without damaging the facial nerve. It has the added benefit of improving the patient's appearance without increasing their vulnerability to complications. If you understand correctly, a facelift incision can also be used for a parotidectomy Patients who have undergone a parotidectomy could find that their appearance has changed depending on the technique used for incision and healing. This happens all the time. Performing a parotidectomy through the same incision as a facelift is a complex treatment that requires the expertise of both our head and neck surgeons and our plastic surgeons to effectively remove parotid gland
