Radiologically-guided balloon sialoplasty for treatment of salivary duct stricture: A novel technique in young children.

OBJECTIVES: To describe our experience using radiologically-guided balloon sialoplasty to successfully treat sialadenitis in two children as a single modality intervention.

METHODS: A retrospective case series.

RESULTS: Both children were successfully treated using balloon sialoplasty with complete and lasting resolution of their symptoms.

CONCLUSION: Paediatric sialadenitis secondary to salivary strictures are traditionally managed surgically. We believe that this is the first article to describe this intervention in such a series of children and that balloon sialoplasty is a safe technique and can be repeated as necessary, which should be considered as a management option in such paediatric cases.
