Intraoral microscopic‐assisted sialolithotomy for management of medium‐large submandibular sialolithiasis: A refined technique

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 282-289, December 2024.
Abstract Objectives Sialendoscopy has become the standard treatment for sialolithiasis; however, larger submandibular calculi may require an incisional technique. This study describes and evaluates an intraoral microscopic‐assisted sialolithotomy (IMAS) as a refined submandibular stone extraction technique.
