Abstract

Sialendoscopy is a relatively new and progressive procedure that allows endoscopic transluminal visualization of major salivary glands and offers a mechanism for diagnosing and treatment of both inflammatory and obstructive pathology related to the ductal system. Several authors have stressed the striking role of sialendoscopy in prevention of juvenile recurrent parotitis. However, the emerging use of sialendoscopy in juvenile recurrent parotitis has not been critically analysed. The objective of our review is to overview the existing literature with particular regards to diagnostic and therapeutic outcomes after the application of sialendoscopy.
