Abstract
Parotid sialocele is an accumulation of saliva inside a subcutaneous cavity, usually as a result of trauma or iatrogenic injury of the parotid gland or duct, which can progress to other complications if left untreated. Numerous treatment options have been described before, but there is currently no evidence based consensus. We present a case of a patient treated for sialocele with the use of negative pressure wound therapy. Laryngoscope, 131:E1094-E1095, 2021.
