Abstract

Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy is a routine procedure done in field of gastroenterology. It is a safe procedure which can be done with or without sedation with rare post procedure complications. Our case illustrates that parotid gland swelling is a uncommon event post upper g.i endoscopy and it a benign event which resolves on its own.
