A case of a giant cell tumor of the condyloid process of the mandible in a young woman of 24 years is reported.
Conservative parotidectomy preserving facial nerve function was applied for removing the tumor. This approach is well applicable for surgical removal of mandibular tumors as well as parotid tumors and enables us to preserve the function of the facial nerve.
Differential diagnosis of the tumors in the parotid region is also discussed.
