Abstract

The article describes the first successful application of endoscopically controlled laserlithotripsy in the ENT field in a patient with recurrent purulent sialadenitis of the left submandibular gland due to sialolithiasis. By means of endoscopically controlled laserinduced lithotripsy of salivary gland stones, it was possible to achieve complete stone fragmentation without harming the glandular duct and the gland.
