 Largest
salivary
glands lying largely
below the external
acoustic meatus
between mandible
and
sternocleidomastoid
muscle and it also
projects forwards on
the surface of
masseter
Ectodermal in origin
 Each parotid is developed during
5th week from angle of primary
oral fissure.
 The groove is converted into tube
which forms duct and opens into
angle of primitive mouth.

With the growth of maxillary and
mandibular process the duct
opening is shifted to vestibule
opposite the upper 2nd molar
tooth.
 During development the gland lies
in between the branches of facial
nerve, as development progresses
it envelopes the branches.

 Superficial
part(80%)lies over
posterior part of ramus of
mandible
 Deep part(20%) lies behind
mandible and medial pterygoid
 Facial nerve lies between them
 The
gland has a capsule of its
own of dense connective
tissue but is also provided
with a false capsule by
investing layer of deep
cervical fascia.
Skin
 Superficial fascia
 Superficial lamina of investing
layer of deep cervical fascia
 Great auricular nerve (anterior
ramus of C2 and C3)

 Mandibular
ramus,
 Masseter and medial
pterygoid muscles

Mastoid process
Styloid process
Carotid sheath with its contained
neurovasculature (Common and
Internal Carotid artery, Internal
Jugular vein, vagus nerve)
 Superior
pharyngyeal
constrictor muscle
From lateral to medial
 Facial nerve
 Retromandibular vein (Patey's
fascio venous plane)
 External Carotid artery
 External
carotid artery
 Retromandibular vein
 Superficial
and deep group
of parotid lymph nodes.
 Efferents from these nodes
drain into jugulodigastric
group of deep cervical
nodes
 Parasympathetic
– stimulates
watery secretion
 Sympathetic – stimulates
mucus rich thick secretion
and also vasomotor
Also known as Stensen’s duct
 Appears at the anterior part of
upper border of gland and passes
across masseter to traverse
buccal fat and buccinator.
 Runs obliquely forwards for a
short distance between
buccinator and the oral mucosa
and opens upon a small papilla
opposite upper 2nd molar tooth.

 Infections
•
•
–
Very painful due to
unyielding nature of capsule.
Retrograde bacterial infection
may occur from mouth via
duct.

Ultrasound
FNAC is the diagnostic

tumors than CT
CT scan/MRI identifies regional lymph node
involvement/ extension into deep lobe /

First line of management
superficial lobe is involved, superficial
conservative parotidectomy
If deep lobe(dumb bell) also involved, total
parotidectomy with preservation of facial
nerve.
Enucleation should be avoided as recurrence
rate is high
Extracapsular enucleation-warthin’s tumor
◦ RADICAL PAROTIDECTOMY
Removal of the entire gland,facial nerve and
regional lymph nodes
Resection of all involved structures
