Unexpected consequences: Post-traumatic parotid sialocele following facial stab injury: A case report [PDF]
Parotid sialocele is characterized by a collection of saliva in the soft tissue surrounding the parotid gland. Etiology may be traumatic, iatrogenic, or laceration to the salivary duct or the gland parenchyma itself.

Assessing Salivary Ductal Structures of the Donkey (<i>Equus asinus</i>) Using Conventional Sialography and Its Practical Guide. [PDF]
Sialoradiography is an imaging technique that assesses the ducal macroanatomy and function of the major salivary glands (MSGs). Despite reports of salivary diseases in donkeys, no studies have documented detailed information on sialoradiography of the ductal structures.

Masseter Muscle Size in Chronic Parotid Sialadenitis. [PDF]
Masseter muscle thickness was greater in patients with chronic parotid sialadenitis. Findings were significant when controlling for sex, BMI, and age. ABSTRACT Objective The relationship between masseter muscle thickness and parotid duct obstruction resulting in recurrent sialadenitis is not well defined.

Anatomical Features of the Parotid Duct in Sialography as an Aid to Endoscopy—A Retrospective Study
Sialography is used for diagnosis of obstructive salivary gland diseases and prior to sialendoscopy. Three-dimensional cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) sialography allows imaging and measurement of salivary duct structures.

Identifying dose constraints for the parotid ducts to minimize patient-reported xerostomia: Is conventional mean dose sparing of the parotid glands sufficient? [PDF]
Abstract Background and purpose The aim of this study was to identify dose constraints for the parotid ducts that limit patient‐reported xerostomia and estimate whether these constraints are achieved during conventional parotid gland sparing radiation therapy (PGS‐RT).

Sialocele of Parotid Duct: Report of Case with Review of Literature [PDF]
Parotid duct sialocele is a salivary cavity arising at the expense of parotid duct. Facial trauma is the most common cause of this rare condition. If left untreated, a sialocele may develop into a significantly large facial swelling.
