Depends: What is the tumor? If benign, perhaps nothing. If malignant, due to what? Each patient and condition will be dealt with individually.

Parotid: Typically a parotid tumor might be aspirated by fna to determine the nature of the lesion and to assist the surgeon in planning for any possible surgery.
