A novel technique is offered for treatment of sialadenitis. Ultraviolet irradiation conductors are inserted into the gland via its major duct for subsequent intracorporeal UV therapy of the gland. The results of the treatment are analyzed in 57 cases of sialadenitis observed during 1 to 2.5 years. The technique proved effective enough to be recommended for practical application.
