[Recurrent parotitis in children and HIV infection. Apropos of 4 cases]. / Parotidites récidivantes de l'enfant et infection HIV. A propos de 4 observations.

We report four cases of recurrent infectious parotiditis in children and recall the clinical radiographic and pathogenic features. Particular attention was paid to the possible relationship between sialadenitis and HIV infection in two cases. This would open a large etiological field when HIV contamination is suspected. Treatment if all four cases (spiramycine, diclofenac, soframycin washing, lipiodol instillation and local bucco-dental treatment) was successful leading to longer intervals between relapses.
