[The free dermis fat transplantation as adjunct in the surgery of the parotid gland (author's transl)].
In order to overcome the short comings of a total parotidectomy in reference to appearance and the possible Frey syndrom, the author proposes the free dermis fat transplant directly after the extirpation of the gland. This diminishes the formation of serous fluid in the operated area. Long term observations showed no signs of the Frey syndrome. Further experimental research and clinincal observations will determine if the free fat transplantation is a workable method to prevent the Frey syndrom.
