Dr. R Surya Narayana, Dr. K Pranitha
Abstract :
AIM: The aim of this study was to present a rare case of parotid abcess secondary to calculi (intraductal). CASE: We report the case of a 55–year–old man presenting with painful swelling over the left parotid region. The patient was treated initially with antibiotics, later exploration of the duct was performed and a stone was retreived from the duct and duct was laid open. Patient recovered well and there was a symptom free interval over a follow up period of six months. CONCLUSION: Management of parotid calculi is not straight forward. Parotidectomy may be required in some selected cases
