The studies primary aim is to use the FACE-Q (a validated patient reported outcome (PRO) scale) for patients undergoing parotidectomy to subjectively measure the functional and aesthetic impact of the surgery1. It is hypothesized that patients undergoing parotidectomy have long-standing under-reported functional and cosmetic issues. Currently most parotid defects are not reconstructed. A secondary aim is to objectively analyse the volume of the parotid gland pre- and post-operatively to guide reconstructive surgery in patient with parotid tumours.
