Efficacy of digital zoning design for the resection of benign parotid gland tumor.

The objective of this study is to verify the role of digital modified parotid tumor zoning method in modified parotid incision. The data of patients with parotid benign tumors from November 2021 to December 2023 were collected. Through the use of digital technology for soft tissue reconstruction, the parotid tumor was divided into four areas according to the digital image marker points. We designed the surgical incision according to the parotid gland division, found that it was feasible to guide the incision selection by division, and summarized the common incision and division corresponding, zone I was I and V-shaped incision, zone II was V incision, zone III was V and C- shaped incision, and zone IV was C- shaped incision. We conclude that the digital modified parotid gland zoning method can provide a better distinction in the surgical incision, and provide a better cosmetic incision and prognosis.
