Data were collected regarding clinical presentations, benign versus malignant nature of the disease on FNAC reports, radiological findings, type of surgery instituted, complications encountered and histology reports of the surgical specimens and subjected to statistical analysis. Results: All patients had presented with a lump usually painless. Thirty (88%) patients had benign pathology while four (12%) had malignancies. Most common surgical procedure instituted was superficial parotidectomy, performed in 90% (n = 31). The most common complication was Sialocele (n=5; 15%) followed by facial nerve palsy (n= 2; 6%).The value of FNAC as a diagnostic tool was with 96.66% specificity and 75% sensitivity. Conclusion: Pleomorphic adenoma is most common benign pathology. Superficial parotidectomy is the most commonly offered surgical procedure. Parotid surgeries are safely performed with low morbidity and no mortality. [Jayman R NJIRM 20...

The management of these tumors has been a subject of much interest and controversy in the past Here we present a series of 19 patients of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (with CT Scan as the main stay of diagnosis) managed over the last 5 years at ENT and Head & Neck Surgery Department of S.S.G. Hospital, Vadodara, with infraoperative internal maxillary artery ligation via the trans maxillary approach permitting accurate removal of tumor with no major post operative complications, minimal blood loss, good cosmetic result and no recurrence till date. If further experience with this approach to management in a larger series of patients has the same results, surgery should be the gold standard in treatment of Nasopharyngeal angiofibroma.
