An applied descriptive and longitudinal investigation was made with all the patients carriers of salivary gland tumors that needed surgical treatment at the Maxillofacial Surgery Service of "Dr. Gustavo Aldereguía" Clinical and Surgical Teaching Hospital, in Cienfuegos, from January, 1990, to December, 1999. It was observed a predominance of females as well as of the age group over 60. The parotid gland was the most affected, whereas the pleomorphic salivary adenoma was the commonest. The adenoid cystic carcinoma was the most frequent in the group of carcinomas. Surgery was the main treatment used, followed by the surgical-radiant combination. Some drug therapy schemes were also analyzed.

Palabras clave : SALIVARY GLAND NEOPLASMS [surgery]; PAROTID NEOPLASMS [surgery].
