A member asked:
Benign parotid lesion in the deep lobe with cystic degeneration. 1.1 x 1.2cm in size, mobile, not painful. suggested treatments?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends...: If the lesion was diagnosed as clearly benign by biopsy or aspiration then several options are possible including watchful waiting if it doesn't bother the patient and is not an esthetic problem, or surgical removal. Consulting a surgeon is recommended.
