Abstract

FNA is indicated for the initial assessment of parotid gland tumors. The advantages of this technique are that it is minimally invasive, simple, gives quick results, can be performed on outpatients, and has a low risk of complications. Objective: to evaluate the value of FNA in diagnosing parotid gland tumors. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional retrospective study describing 252 cases of parotid gland tumors examined and treated at Ho Chi Minh City Oncology Hospital from January 2022 to June 2023 with the diagnosis of parotid gland tumors. Results: Patients with parotid tumors were in the age group of 35-<60 years old, with the highest rate of 54.0%; the lowest was in the age group of <18 years old with 1.2%, with a male: female ratio of 1.5:1. In 261 tumors performed FNA, 91.2% were benign, 8.4% were malignant, and 0.4% were undetermined. Conclusion: Applying ultrasound-guided FNA as a routine procedure in preoperative diagnosis of parotid tumors.
