Abstract: Parotid carcinoma is not an uncommon pathology. Sometimes delays in patient presentation may lead to challenges for surgical options. Because of the location of the parotid and its close relationship with the facial nerve, a limited number of options are available for managing large tumors. We operated on a case with a huge ulcerative lesion on the left side of the face and the facial defect was covered with a supraclavicular flap. Postoperative results were very convincing.Key Points Immediate reconstruction of facial defect after excising a large parotid tumor improved patient satisfaction For volume restoration after huge parotid tumor excision, supraclavicular artery island flap is good option.
Keywords: Parotid Tumour ,Supra-Clavicular Flap, Reconstruction.
