Surgical treatment of ACC requires a wide margin of healthy tissues; For the risk of local recurrences affected positive surgical margins, skull base locations of primary tumor and perineural invasion; Because of unpredictable nature of the tumor (local recurrences, distant metastasis), observation of patients after treatment should be carried out permanently, along with periodic imaging studies.
1. Endonasal and open approach should be considered in the surgical treatment of recurrent inverted papilloma. 2.

Impairment of the facial nerve function is the most common complication of surgical treatment of primary pleomorphic adenomas. Statistically significant risk factors of postoperative facial nerve dysfunction include: female gender; older patient age, tumour location in the deep lobe, type of surgical procedure (total parotidectomy). Some decrease in the incidence of sialoceles and salivary fistulas may be achieved by preservation of the Stensen's duct or by radical resection of glandular tissue.
Recurrent pleomorphic adenoma occurs more often in younger patients and women. The risk of the facial nerve injury increases with each successive operation. Surgical treatment should be individualized, taking into consideration the extent of the previous surgery and the type of recurrence.
