  • Title: Is Reflex Parotitis a Forgotten or an Unknown Pathology?
    Author: Fernández-Olarte H, Ratinoff M, López JP, Castel-Belmonte I.
    Journal: J Craniofac Surg; 2023 Jun 01; 34(4):e354-e356. PubMed ID: 37262411.
    Abstract:
    Reflex parotitis is a recurrent parotid inflammation caused by an imbalance in the parasympathetic innervation of the salivary gland. However, due to a poor understanding of its pathophysiology, it can go unnoticed. Causes of ignored norms can trigger these repetitive episodes of glandular disease with a difficult diagnosis and inadequate treatment.
