The prevalence of benign tumors of the salivary glands is increasing. The complexity of the anatomical areas and the proximity of the of the facial nerve’s branches lead to frequent complications in the postoperative period. Nowadays there are several instrumental diagnostic methods for determining salivary gland tumors and among which the use of magnetic resonance imaging with contrast enhancement made it possible to estimate the exact location of neural and vascular structures in relation to the neoformation.
