“…Early and late sialadenitis occurs most frequently (2). Approximately 10%-60% of patients treated with RAI report acute or chronic salivary dysfunction related symptoms (3)(4)(5)(6)(7). Symptoms of sialadenitis include pain and swelling of the affected glands, trismus, sour taste in the mouth, and facial weakness.…”

“…Sialadenectomy is performed as a last resort when conservative management has failed; nerve weakness or paralysis has been reported in 20%-60% of cases of sialadenectomy for chronic sialadenitis (13,14). Sialendoscopy has been reported to be a potential alternative treatment option (4,12,15,16). This procedure is a minimally invasive technique that avoids the need for external surgery and has been shown to have minimal operative morbidity in sialadenitis cases of varying etiologies (4,17,18).…”

“…Therapeutic indications include treatment of sialolithiasis, dilation of strictures and management of recurrent juvenile sialadenitis [3]. Sialendoscopy also can be used for treatment of radioiodine induced sialadenitis [10] and intraductal masses [2]. The only contraindication for sialendoscopy is acute sialadenitis [11].…”

We performed a retrospective analysis to review the results and complications of sialendoscopy and to identify the overall success rate of mechanical stone retrieval without fragmentation in our patients with sialolithiasis. Between 2009 and 2011, 33 patients with sialolithiasis underwent interventional sialendoscopy. Patients with sialoliths larger than 7 mm in the Wharton's duct and 5 mm in the Stensen's duct or intraparenchymal stones were not included in this study. Grasping forceps, wire baskets and graspers was used for stone removal. The mean age at presentation was 41.7 (range, 29-62) years with a male to female ratio of approximately 1:2. The average size of the stones ranged from 2 to 6 mm. The overall success rate for endoscopic stone retrieval was 78 % (26 of 33) and three patients required a combined approach with intraoral incisions for stone removal. The major complication rate was 3 % (1 of 33) caused by submandibular duct perforation. The endoscopic retrieval of salivary stones is a safe and effective technique in selected cases. As instruments for stone fragmentation are expensive and not available everywhere, selecting patients with small and medium sized stones could lead to successful results in majority of cases.
