Salivoma after carotid endarterectomy

Levent Çetin, Edip Temiz, Erkan Kuralay.




Abstract

Salivoma is an extremely rare pathology after carotid artery surgery. The presence of a high amylase level (85 U/L) in the drainage fluid is
pathognomonic for the diagnosis. Reducing glandular secretion by anticholinergic drugs is quite useful for the treatment of salivoma.

Key words: Anticholinergics; carotid artery surgery; salivoma
