Sialolthiasis is one of the most common benign pathologies of the salivary glands. It is associated with frequent bacterial infections and significant discomfort. Large &/or multiple stones are traditionally treated by ductal marsupialisation or gland excision. Sialendoscopy, a relatively new minimally invasive technique is a useful technique which can preserve a functioning gland and reduce postoperative morbidity. The current report demonstrates the successful use of sialendoscopy in evacuating 13 stones from a submandibular gland. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
