My mom has severe asthma and has had a pleomorphic adenoma in her parotid gland for 20 years. The doctor recommended a superficial parotidectomy under general anesthesia, but I'm worried because of her asthma and the risks of general anesthesia. Is it possible to remove this tumor under local anesthesia instead?

While general anesthesia is commonly used for superficial parotidectomy, a skilled surgeon can perform the procedure with local anesthesia, especially for smaller tumors or when the patient has specific contraindications to general anesthesia, like severe asthma
