“…Retrograde migration is very rare due to almost constant salivary flow, a freely mobile ductal orifice, small size of the orifice and the punctum itself acting as a oneway valve [5]. Abe et al, Derin et al and Lee et al in their respective case reports, described cases of fish bone causing obstructive sialadentis of submandibular gland [6][7][8]. Treatment was done either by excision of the submandibular gland or by using an intra-oral incision of the wall of the duct and marsupialization of the duct lumen followed by placement of a stent.…”

Submandibular sialadenitis is a common ailment in otorhinolaryngological and oral surgical practice. Some of the common causes of sialadenitis include sialolithiasis, inspissated mucous plugs, strictures and anatomical ductal variations. Very rarely do foreign bodies cause obstructive sialadenitis. Fish bone as a foreign body is routinely seen, with the most common locations being oropharynx, hypopharynx, oseophagus and tongue. We report an intriguing case of a 40 year old male with sialadenitis of the right submandibular gland due to an intra-ductal fish bone.

“…Findings support the possibility that some sialoliths might result from retrograde migration of a fishbone through the orifice of Wharton's duct. Fish bones are one of the most common foreign bodies found in the pharynx and esophagus, but they are very rarely found in the salivary gland or the duct [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]13,14,24,25]. In previous studies, the incidence of a fishbone encompassed by a sialolith ranged from 2.8% (12/423) to 4.4% (5/114) of patients with sialoliths of the submandibular gland [6,8,26].…”

“…There are interesting statics about fish bone as a foreign body, for example, in one of review of English-language literature, migration of a fish bone into the salivary gland was more common in men than in women [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]13,26]. Fish bones were more often present in the submandibular gland than the parotid gland [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]13,14,26] and were more often located in the left side of the submandibular gland than in the right side [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]13,14,26]. Stone formation induced by a fish bone tended to be obviously related to the occupation (fisherman), dietary habit (seafood), and history of injury (recollection of a fish-bone injury and subsequent symptoms) [6].…”

“…Obstructive sialadenitis of the submandibular gland is usually due to sialoliths, but foreign body-associated sialadenitis is not often and rare in the literature [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. The mechanism of foreign-body entry is generally traumatic [4][5][6]15], thus reports of a foreign body entering the salivary gland intraorally through Wharton's or Stensen's duct are not common and usual.…”

Introduction: Foreign body-associated sialadenitis of submandibular gland is not often and scarce within the literature. In this study, a report of a piece of Nail-like fish bone foreign body entering the Wharton’s duct causing an acute sialadenitis is presented. Foreign bodies must be explored and all suspected areas must be examined carefully for avoiding secondary problems and surgeries in the future. Foreign bodies in the oral and maxillofacial region are often experienced after trauma and dental treatment. Case Report : We describe a case of obstructive sialadenitis in the submandibular gland caused by penetration of a fish bone in a 68-year-old man. He had swelling and spontaneous pain in the left submandibular region. The radiographic examination didn't show foreign body in the submandibular gland. Initially, we diagnosed obstructive sialadenitis in the left submandibular gland and the study suspect that salivary stone might be the cause of this swelling so compressing and milking of Wharton duct. The foreign body measured 1.3 cm *3 mm*2 mm and was a nail-like object. On pathological examination, the foreign body was found to be a fish bone (cartilage-like organic material). Conclusion: This case demonstrated that precise and proper inspection and examination, milking and then paying attention to the secretion of salivary gland lead to proper diagnosis and after that suitable treatment, so this could reduce costly assessment and treatment, also lessen bewilderment of the patient.
