Abstract
Sialendoscopy is established in the diagnostics and treatment of obstructive salivary gland diseases, but has not previously been reported in patients with injuries to Stensen's duct. Sialendoscopy assisted repair of a transected Stensen's duct in zone B is reported. The duct injury itself, its location, and its severity could be visualized and precisely assessed and allowed intraductal assessment of the ductal tissue. Rapid atraumatic dissection and also postoperative endoscopic follow-up examination with assessment of the anastomosis was provided by using the sialendoscope, which appears to be valuable for several reasons in the management of Stensen's duct trauma.
