[Treatment of malignant parotid tumors. Results from the county of Copenhagen].
Out of 494 parotid gland tumours treated in Copenhagen county (population 600,000 inhabitants) in the period 1986 to 1995, 50 patients (tumours) were proven to be malignant, making an incidence of 0.62/100,000 per year. Age ranged between 14 and 87, mean 64 years. According to the UICC classification system, six tumours (12%) were classified as stage I, 23 (46%) as stage II, 14 (28%) as stage III and 7 (14%) in stage IV. Four therapeutic modalities were applied: surgery only, surgery + radiation, surgery + chemotherapy and surgery + chemotherapy + radiation. Surgical radicality was achieved in 76% and radicality was unrelated to tumour histology. Normal or nearly normal facial nerve function (HB1&2) was noted at last follow up in 60%. Five year crude survival for all patients were 68%. Survival was not depends on N-classification. Patients in stage I had a better survival compared to patients in stage II, III and IV. No statistically significant difference in five year crude survival between the radically operated patients (n = 38) and patients with residual tumour (p = 0.27, log rank-test), (p = 0.48 chi2-test was found.
