ABSTRACT

Sialocele is an acquired lesion due to extravasation of saliva into the subcutaneous tissues due to trauma or surgery in the glandular region. Sialocele typically develops 8 to 14 days. Ultrasound of neck can be helpful in diagnosis of facial swelling. A case of 25 year old male patient with progressive facial swelling in the sub mental region with history of fire arm injury, which was diagnosed as sialocele is being reported. Sialography can be helpful in the diagnosis, but can increase further pressure in sailocele. In this case, diagnosis was made on history, clinical examination, aspiration of contents and ultrasound. The objective of the study is to present a case of post traumatic sialocele developing after fire arm injury. A detailed description of the condition and its management along with literature review is presented
