Obstructive salivary gland disorders-primarily sialolithiasis and ductal stenosis-remain a significant source of morbidity, often requiring surgical intervention. Sialendoscopy has emerged as a minimally invasive, gland-preserving technique for both diagnosis and treatment. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate diagnostic and interventional sialendoscopy outcomes in a Romanian patient cohort and to identify gland-specific considerations in the management of salivary gland obstruction; A total of 89 patients with confirmed obstructive salivary gland disease (parotid or submandibular) were included.

This study describes our experience with children diagnosed with activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta syndrome (APDS2) including unusual presentations.
