title: [Treatment of salivary gland tumors in the past and at the present time at the 1st and 2nd Stomatology Clinics of the Charles University Medical School in Bratislava].
abstract: The retrospective study analyzes a group of 1021 patients (484 men and 537 women) with salivary gland tumours treated at the 1st and 2nd Departments of Stomatology in Bratislava within the years 1951-1996. This time period is divided into the past (1951-1980) and recent (1981-1996) periods. The trends in the diagnosis and treatment with the main emphasis on surgical procedures are mentioned. The most common operation were lateral parotidectomy (409 cases = 40.1%) and conservative parotidectomy (105 cases = 10.2%), enucleations were indicated rarely. Authors stress the necessity of team approach and cooperation of maxillofacial surgeons, radiologists, histopathologists, otorhinolaryngologists and oncologists. (Tab. 1, Fig. 2, Ref. 6.)
