Popis: This study is a review of 57 patients with tumours in the parotid glands who underwent surgery at the ORL Clinic in Białystok. Malignant tumours constituted 17.5% of all parotid tumours and adenoid cystic carcinoma was the dominant type in this group. Pleomorphic adenomas were the most common benign tumour. The role of fine needle aspiration biopsy in diagnosis of parotid tumours is discussed. Superficial parotidectomy was the predominant form of treatment (47 cases). Total parotidectomy was done in 7 cases. The results of treatment are presented.
