Clinical Efficacy of Sialendoscopy‐Assisted Stone Removal for Non‐Palpable Hilar and Intraglandular Submandibular Sialoliths

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 7, Page 2314-2322, July 2025.
This study compared the efficacy of sialendoscopy‐assisted stone removal (SASR) with non‐endoscopic transoral stone removal (TOSR) for non‐palpable submandibular stones. Among 70 patients in the SASR group, 98.57% achieved complete stone removal, while the TOSR group's success rate was 94.12%. SASR had fewer acute complications (7.14%) compared to TOSR
