title: [On the ligation of Stenon's duct in chronic-recurrent parotitis (author's transl)].
abstract: Ligation of Stenon's duct represents a possibility for treatment of chronic-recurrent parotitis. This procedure leads to an atrophy of the gland parenchyma. In one case, observed by us as a complication of this method ligation of the duct was followed by the formation of a great parotid gland cyst. Under respect of this casuistic report, possibilities are discussed to prevent similar and other complications. They consist in the section of the preganglionic fibers of the tympanic plexus respectively in a simultaneous radiation therapy of the diseased gland.
