title: [Recurrent parotid enlargement following coronary angiography].
abstract: We report a case of a 56-year old patient with coronary heart disease and subacute myocardial infarction who presented with acute sialadenitis after twice undergoing coronary angiography. Acute sialadenitis ('iodide mumps') after exposure to contrast medium is characterized by a fast, painless and bilateral swelling of the salivary glands. It is usually self-limiting but can occur after re-exposure to the contrast agent.
