Sialolithiasis accounts for the most cases of salivary gland obstruction which leads to recurrent painful swelling of the involved gland which often exacerbates while eating. Stones may be encountered in any of the salivary glands but most frequently in the submandibular gland and its duct. This is a case report of a 40-year-old male patient who had a submandibular sialolith. The sialolith was removed with intraoral approach and no post-operative complications were noted. The article also reviews the various available diagnostic modalities and treatment options. |
