The parotid gland is the largest salivary gland in the human body. It is located in front of the ear and extends to the jawline. However, sometimes, the parotid gland develops tumors, which can be cancerous (malignant) or noncancerous (benign). It may also develop infections and obstructive salivary stones. Most cases may require surgery (parotidectomy) to remove part or all of the parotid gland. The surgical method depends on the size, type, and location of the tumor. The facial nerve that runs through the gland is carefully dissected as it is crucial to maintain facial movement and expression.
