Abstract
Sialolithiasis is one of the most common salivary gland diseases. The main symptom is acute swelling of a major salivary gland after food intake, whereby the submandibular gland is significantly more frequently affected compared to the parotid gland. In the course of the disease, recurrent sialadenitis occurs in many cases. In addition to submandibulectomy, there is currently not only the possibility of improved diagnostics but also of gland-preserving therapy, for example by means of miniature endoscopy (sialendoscopy).
