| Popis: | Purpose To evaluate the clinical value of sialendoscopy in the treatment of Stensen's duct injury. Patients and Methods A total of 5 patients with Stensen's duct injuries who had been treated from December 2017 to April 2019 were included in the present study. The operations were performed with the help of a sialendoscope. All patients were followed for 6 months. Results The distal end of the ductal system was found precisely with the use of the sialendoscope, and the proximal end was identified by the location of the distal end. The end-to-end anastomosis was performed successfully. None of the patients complained of salivary gland fistula at the 6-month follow-up examination. Conclusions The stumps of the ductal system could be precisely and effectively located with the help of a sialendoscope. |
