The published prevalence of facial weakness is up to 57 per cent for temporary weakness and up to 7 per cent for permanent weakness. We aimed to identify potential risk factors for post-operative facial palsy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215113003502_sec2\"><jats:title>Materials and methods:<\/jats:title><jats:p>One hundred and fifty patients who had undergone parotid surgery for benign disease were retrospectively reviewed. Tumour factors (size, location and histopathology), patient factors (age and sex) and operative factors (operation, surgeon grade, surgeon specialty and use of intra-operative facial nerve monitoring) were all analysed for significant associations with post-operative facial palsy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215113003502_sec3\"><jats:title>Results and analysis:<\/jats:title><jats:p>The overall incidence of facial palsy was 26.7 per cent for temporary weakness and 2.6 per cent for permanent weakness. The associations between facial palsy and all the above factors were analysed using Pearson's chi-square test and found to be non-significant.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215113003502_sec4\"><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p>These outcomes compare favourably with the literature.
