parotidectomy

The procedure is mostly used in the treatment of benign or malignant tumors. It refers to the surgical removal of the parotid gland, which is the major salivary gland. Most of the patients infected from benign gland tumors and few are the sufferers of the malignant tumor. The parotid gland weighs in the range from 15- 30 g and the entire area is known as the preauricular region. It is categorized into two parts according to the facial nerve named as the superficial and deep lobe. 

Parotidectomy is also of two types:

Partial Parotidectomy: it is the standard procedure for benign tumors with low mark malignancies. Resection of parotid pathology with a brim of ordinary parotid tissue.

Superficial Parotidectomy: it is performed by doing the resection of the entire superficial lobe and it is generally applied for metastases to modes such as skin cancers.

Total Parotidectomy: With the defense of facial nerves, resection is done on the entire parotid gland. It depends on the nerve affected, whether facial nerve branches may be a sacrifice or the trunks.

Extended Total Parotidectomy: To perform the treatment on the in-line structure, removal of superficial and parotid gland will be protracted.

A few complications may the result of this treatment include salivary fistula, infection, hematoma, cosmetic malformation or infection. Facial nerves should be tested and monitored before carries out any procedure on the patient.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
