Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4

Abstract

Oropharyngeal injuries are common especially in children. The parotid gland contains several vital structures, all of which may have been damaged causing high morbidity. We present infant boy with parotid gland tissue herniation through the site of opening of parotid duct after blunt trauma without any mucosal or other organs injuries. Careful evaluation is important to detect serious and hidden injuries and to exclude foreign body impaction. During the examination keep in mind other diseases which can coexist.
