Benigne spytkirteltumorer

Benign tumours of the salivary glands most commonly affect the parotid gland. Diagnostic evaluation should include ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration, with additional imaging as needed. The most frequent tumour types are pleomorphic adenoma and Warthin's tumour. This review finds that treatment typically involves surgical excision, although in selected cases, a watchful waiting approach may be appropriate. There is currently no consensus on the optimal surgical technique for all cases. Complete tumour removal, while preserving adjacent nerves and healthy salivary gland tissue, remains essential.
