Abstract
We review various incisions for treatment of tumors of the face and parotid and submaxillary regions, as well as for radical neck surgery. A contribution to this field is made in the form of facial and cervical incisions that not only provide broad exposure of the region affected by the tumor, but also involve incision traces based on plastic surgery criteria. In this respect, we describe plastic modeling of the facial, submaxillary, and neck contours, resorting to the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles.Keywords
