Abstract:

To investigate the outcome of sternocleidomastoid flap applied to reconstruct the defect and prevent Frey’s syndrome after parodidectomy. 24 patients with benign parotid tumors underwent the superficial or deep lobe of parotidectomy and facial nerve preservation. The sternocleidomastoid was employed immediately to repair the defects after parotidectomy in all the patients. Among the 24 cases, no infection and necrosis of the wound and saliva fistula was found. The wounds healed with first intention. Both significant facial deformity and Frey’s syndrome were not observed in the 24 cases followed-up from 6 to 10 months. Therefore, it suggested that the sternocleidomastoid flap could prevent facial depressed deformity and reduce obviously the incidence of Frey’s syndrome after parotidectomy.

Key words: parotid gland, benign tumor, sternocleidomastoid flap, Frey’s syndrome
