[Recurring tumors of the parotid gland with special reference to pleomorphic adenoma].
161 patients with parotid tumors seen between 1974 and 1980 are analyzed. A recurrence rate of 20% was found for both benign and malignant tumors. 76% of the recurrent tumors were judged to have been inadequately excised at the first operation. Pleomorphic adenomas had a recurrence rate of 25%. More than half these tumors exhibited multinodular patterns of recurrence. Therefore, a recurrent pleomorphic adenoma should not be reoperated upon for at least one year.
