dc.description.abstractSialolithiasis, the predominant affliction affecting salivary glands, constitutes approximately half of all major salivary gland pathologies. The vast majority of salivary gland calculi, roughly 80-90%, are located in the submandibular gland, with 5-10% in the parotid gland, and an estimated 0-5% in the sublingual and other minor salivary glands. Typically, sialolithiasis manifests in adults between the ages of 30 and 60, with a greater occurrence in males. This malady is predominantly observed in adults and is infrequent in children. Herein, we present a case study of calculus retrieval in a 35-year-old woman, characterized by recurrent swelling and pain in the left parotid gland, exacerbated during meals due to ductal obstruction impeding saliva flow. This hindrance impedes gland drainage, resulting in inflamed ducts. Sialadenitis subsided following calculus removal.en_US
