Resumen
HERNANDEZ ALTEMIR, F.; HERNANDEZ MONTERO, S.; HERNANDEZ MONTERO, S. y HERNANDEZ MONTERO, E.. Parotidectomy and facial vein. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2009, vol.31, n.5, pp.319-327. ISSN 2173-9161.
Benign parotid tumor surgery is related to fundamental nervous structures, defined simply: that when damaged cause great psychosomatic problems. In order to make peripheral facial nerve surgery easy to handle for the surgeon this article emphasizes the importance of the facial vein in the dissection and conservation of the nerve. Its dissection can be compromised if the caudal branches are damaged. The study that we develop should be seen as praise for the vein structures in the follow up and control of the peripheral facial nerve, and the main auricular nerve that is often undervalued when it is no longer the protagonist in the face.
