Pleomorphic adenoma is the most frequent benign tumour of the salivary glands. The most common localization is the parotid gland. The authors present a clinical analysis of the group of 216 patients, who was treated in ENT Department and who was diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma. The frequency of incidence of mixed tumours is 50.70% of all 426 cases of parotid gland's tumours. In 92, 13% cases the tumours was localized in the superficial part, only in 7.87% in deep part of the gland. Sixteen patient was operated on because of the recurrence of mixed tumours. In one case we observed the syndrome of the auriculotemporal nerve. The temporary paresis of facial nerve after operation occurred in 19 patients.
