parotidectomy is a surgical procedure that removes part or all of the parotid gland. The parotid gland is the largest salivary gland and sits in front of and below the ear, over the back of the jaw. parotidectomy is commonly used to diagnose and treat parotid gland tumors and other significant gland problems. It is typically performed by head and neck surgeons (ENT) or oral and maxillofacial surgeons, often with dental teams involved when oral structures are affected.
