Intraparotid facial nerve schwannoma is a rare benign neoplasm. Due to its rarity, it is not usually a prioritized diagnosis before surgery and may therefore lead to an unintentional treatment error. In this article, we report a single case of intraparotid facial nerve schwannoma. We were able to make a diagnosis with frozen biopsy. A complete resection of the mass while preserving the facial nerve was performed. Herein we present our clinical experience with regards to the treatment process of intraparotid facial nerve schwannoma.
