This document discusses parotidectomy, a surgical procedure to remove all or part of the parotid gland. It covers the anatomy of the parotid gland, different types of parotidectomy procedures, indications for surgery, surgical incisions and steps, potential complications, and references. The types of parotidectomy include superficial and total parotidectomy. Complications can include Frey's syndrome, where the skin overlying the parotid gland develops sweating in response to eating. Nerve grafts may be used and management of Frey's syndrome is also discussed.
