“…Its pathogenesis is not fully elucidated. There are conflicting opinions in the literature as to a possible connection with congenital [9,21], acquired or multifactorial inflammationinduced stenosis and ectasia of the duct system [20], congenital duct anomalies [22] and post-infectious factors [13]. In addition, the involvement of autoimmune processes has been suggested [23,24].…”

“…Acute episodes are characterized by painful, tender, unilateral, or bilateral parotid gland swelling, which may last from a few days to more than two weeks. The swelling typically appears suddenly over a period of a few hours and may be accompanied by systemic symptoms, including fever and general malaise [Jones, 1953].…”

Infantile chronic recurrent parotitis (ICRP) has been attributed to multiple causes, including viral infections, and therefore its treatment remains empirical. Our aim was to evaluate the involvement of respiratory and oropharyngeal viruses in acute episodes of ICRP. Seventy children were studied, 50 patients and 20 age-matched controls, in a 2-year follow-up study. Saliva samples were taken from the parotid duct and analyzed by viral isolation and immunofluorescence for adenovirus (Ad), respiratory sincitial virus (RSV), parainfluenza virus (PI), influenza virus (Flu), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and herpes simplex virus (HSV). Paired sera samples were tested by ELISA for anti-Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) IgG and anti-mumps IgM and IgG. Viral infections were detected in 7/50 (14%) cases of the ICRP group: one CMV; 2 Enteroviruses isolated in human embryonic lung fibroblast cells; 1 Flu A; and 3 mumps virus. No EBV seroconversions were detected. In the control group, 2 out of the 20 children had an asymptomatic mumps positive IgM titer. Our data indicate that the main respiratory and oropharyngeal viruses are not the cause of acute episodes of ICRP in Chilean children.
