salivary gland stone is the main reason
in most of the salivary gland swellings.
you can see here a multiple stone blockage of
main salivary draining system
this video shows endoscopic stone removal
with forceps
this procedure
can be undertaken topical
or under general anaesthesia
without need of hospital stay
it looks like a simple procedure
but needs to have at very very special backgrounds
in terms of
high experience
and technology
the cure and surgical philosophy
advocates minimally invazive approaches
from the point of view about the physician
and the patient
so...
sialendoscopic removal of stones
is the gold standard in..
the endoscopic era
the current treatment modality
is sialendoscopy
and
interventional sialendoscopic
procedures
and uh...
you're in the middle of the uh... endoscopic scene
there is one
stone
located in the deeper side of the duct
and the forceps is trying to get it out
after removal of the stones
a...
endoscopic controll
is proceeding and
another stone is
still available here located
at the deeper side of the gland
it seems to be mobil
and uh...
was tried
to get it out
with forceps
we are working
with two hands
and uh... we have a very special
surgical tools here
actually it is not so easy
as it seems
