ABSTRACT: Extracapsular dissection is an old technique use for the removal of benign parotid tumours, which is not generally chosen as the first treatment option due to the association of recurrences in the past but is currently considered again accord to the aesthetic requirements of the patients. The general trend in the last decade is to return to minimally invasive procedures for this type of lesions, which are mainly conditioned by the pleomorphic adenoma and its positive margins in its capsule. By this, the purpose of this case series study is to analyze those patients diagnosed with benign parotid tumors and treated by extracapsular dissection in a tertiary hospital in Chile between 2018-2020.
