Abstract
AbstractA 5‐year‐old male Shih Tzu was presented for right eye exophthalmia and periorbital swelling. Computed tomography and fine needle aspiration revealed a zygomatic sialocele. A ventral non‐ostectomy approach was performed to remove the zygomatic salivary gland and its duct. This new, minimally invasive approach allowed good visualisation and complete exteriorisation of the gland in this brachycephalic dog. No intra‐ or postoperative complications were noted. This clinical case confirmed the relevance of this approach in the treatment of zygomatic sialoceles in all types of dogs.
