A summary is presented of our experience with 23 patients who had accessory parotid tumors, comprising 1% of all primary parotid neoplasms seen during a 40 year period. Although more than half of the tumors proved malignant, adequate excision was usually curative. We prefer to approach these tumors through an extended cheek-flap incision. Once the lesion is exposed, either local excision or resection in conjunction with subtotal parotidectomy can be performed, depending on the clinical findings.
