[Sialolithiasis of the parotid gland].
Sialolithiasis of the parotid gland is a rare diagnostic and therapeutic problem in otorhinolaryngology. The authors describe opinions concerned with symptomatology, localization, diagnostics and methods of treatment in parotid sialolithiasis in support of clinical material of three patients treated in the ENT Department, Medical University of Gdańsk in years 1993-2002. One patient was treated with antibiotics while the other two patients were treated surgically--partial parotidectomy was performed, removing in one case intraparenchymal calculus 15 mm in diameter and in second case--from proximal part of parotid duct with 5 mm of diameter. After treatment there were not observed any symptoms of the disease.
