Abstract
|
|
|
|
It is important to both recognize parotid duct injuries and immediately repair them to prevent complications that accompany these injuries. Although there have been some reports of successful conservative treatments of the parotid duct injury, many authors recommend early surgical repair of the parotid duct and, when possible, primary anastomosis as the best treatment. Sialography is very useful for the diagnosis of parotid duct injury and can also support the information of parotid duct system. We present three cases of successful treatment of parotid duct injury with surgical repair. Also, we discuss about the effectiveness of surgical repair of parotid duct injury and how to assess it preoperatively.
