Resumo: | Introduction: Frey’s syndrome is characterized by facial sweating, flushing and heat sensation in the parotid area. Its prevalence is highly variable. Methods: The present study included 33 selected patients, submitted to superficial parotidectomy. To the included patients, a clinical interview was conducted and Minor’s test, for objective evaluation of Frey’s syndrome, was applied. The degree of Frey’s syndrome severity was determined according to Luna Ortiz’s model and by using a 0-10 numeric scale. Results: Of the 33 ini- tially selected patients, only 27 (81,8%) showed up for assessment at Hospital de Braga. Of the seven patients who referred sweating, only one classified it as “excessive”, giving it grade 6 on a “0-10” scale, while all of the others classified it as “1”, “2” or “3”. Minor’s test was positive in seven patients, one of which didn’t have any clinical complaints. According to Luna-Ortiz’s surgical severity model, three patients (42, 2%) were assessed as having moderate Frey’s syndrome and four patients (57,1%) had severe disease. Conclusion: The incidence of this condition, as determined by Minor’s test, is 26,2%, similarly to what is found in other studies. Keywords: Frey’s syndrome, Parotid gland |

Keywords: Frey’s syndrome, Parotid gland Introdução: O Síndrome de Frey caracteriza-se pela sensação de calor, eritema e sudorese da face no território da glândula parótida. A prevalência deste síndrome é altamente variável. Métodos: Foram seleccionados para este estudo 33 doentes submetidos a parotidectomia superficial. Aos doentes convocados, foi realizada uma entrevista clínica e aplicado o teste de Minor para avaliação objectiva do Síndrome de Frey. A gravidade do Síndrome de Frey foi determinada de acordo com o modelo desenhado por Luna-Ortiz e por uma escala numérica contínua de 0-10. Resultados: Dos 33 doentes convocados, compareceram para avaliação no Hospital de Braga 27 doentes (81,8%). Dos sete doentes que referiam sudação, apenas um referiu essa sudação como excessiva classificando-a como “6” na escala de 0-10, sendo que os restantes classificaram-na como “1”, “2” ou “3”. O teste de Minor foi positivo em sete doentes, um dos quais não tinha referido manifestações clínicas. De acordo com o modelo da gravidade da cirurgia desenhado por Luna-Ortiz, três doentes (42,2%) apresentaram Síndrome de Frey moderado e quatro doentes (57,1%) Síndrome de Frey grave. Conclusões: A incidência deste síndrome objectivável pelo teste de Minor no nosso centro é similar ao descrito na literatura (26,2%).
