Abstract
The patho-histological, diagnostical and therapeutical problems of the mixed tumours of the parotid gland are discussed. In the cases of the benign mixed tumours the extensive excision has mostly been combined with radium treatment, and less frequently with post-operative X-ray radiation treatment. The percentage of the 5 years’ relapses corresponded to 4.2% in the authors’ material. In the cases of malignant mixed tumours similarly combined treatment has been made. The 5-years’ tumour-free condition corresponded to 9% and the 5 years’ survival to 41%. On the basis of the data of the literature and his own experiences the augmented radicality of the surgical intervention and the simultaneous radiation treatment are emphasized by the authors.
