Introduction:Sialectasis of parotid duct is an uncommon condition characterised by abnormal dilatation of a part or whole of the Stensen's duct. It may lead to recurrent parotid infections as well as a cause of concern for the patient. Superficial parotidectomy is the accepted surgical treatment for this condition. Case Report: A case of idiopathic dilatation of parotid duct is presented. It was treated by marsupialisation of the sialectatic segment.This procedure proved to be much simpler and safer than superficial parotidectomy whilst being equally effective. Conclusion: In cases of Stensen's duct sialectasis without any abnormality of the parotid gland, marsupialisation of the ectatic segment should be the treatment of choice.

Stensen's duct is rarely a primary site for a salivary neoplasm (11 examples in the English-language literature from 1927 to 1984). Bereft of myoepithelium, the neoplasms are histologically malignant and have been of mucoepidermoid, squamous, or undifferentiated types. Surgical management is predicated on the location and stage of the carcinoma.

AbstractBackground:A foreign body is a rare cause of parotid gland obstructive sialadenitis; intra-oral penetration via Stensen's duct is unusual. The relatively recent introduction of interventional sialendoscopy to treat obstructive sialadenitis has allowed surgeons to adopt a gland-sparing approach by means of miniaturised endoscopes and instruments. However, unusual anatomy or pathological conditions can give rise to a risk of intraductal rupture that may lead to a subsequent iatrogenic foreign body.Case report:This paper describes the case of a patient with a 4 mm stone engaged by a broken wire basket stuck in a secondary branch of Stensen's duct.Results:The iatrogenic foreign body was successfully retrieved by means of sialendoscopy-assisted transfacial surgery.Conclusion:This is the first reported case of an intraductal rupture of a miniaturised device during interventional sialendoscopy successfully resolved by means of combined endoscopy and external surgery. This proved to be an effective method of rescuing a foreign body stuck in Stensen's duct.
