Sažetak
Sialoendoscopy is a minimally invasive overall safe procedure for the treatment salivary gland diseases
performed in general anesthesia. It has diagnostic and therapeutical benefits resulting in relieving symptoms
for patients with obstructive sialodenitis with or without sialolithiasis and non-neoplastic duct obstructive
sialodenitis. Methods: Sialoendoscopy provides the visualization of the gland ductal system for parotid or
submandibular glands. Endoscopy procedure for the salivary gland excretion system makes it possible to either
detect ductal stenosis, inflammation or to diagnose and remove a ductal stone. It requires sialoendoscope,
source of light, endoscopy column, anesthesiologist and ICU. The benefit of sialoendoscopy is a rather shortterm general anesthesia in a non-complicated case of sialodenosis and through a one-day surgery protocol.
Results: Sialoendoscopy is indicated in the recurrence of sialodenosis in children, in most cases in juvenile
recurrent parotitis, other inflammatory swelling or sialolithiasis. The main benefit of this rather non-invasive
procedure for a patient is a relief of painful swelling, and swelling frequency, and unblocking the salivary
gland regarding sialodenitis with or without sialolithiasis and non-neoplastic obstructive sialodenitis.
Conclusion: Salivary duct system diseases in children present a rare condition requiring autoimmune, acute
infection viral or bacterial, with or without stones, or caused by trauma or a tumor. Sialodenitis in children is
most commonly caused by recurrent parotitis that resloves spontaneous in puberty but diminishes life quality
with recurrent acute painful swelling and school or social absence. Sialoendoscopy as a non-invasive procedure
provides relief for recurrent painful gland swelling and improves life quality.
