Objectives: To describe our experience in excision of the submandibular gland (SMG) without drain insertion and with preservation of the facial artery as a day case surgery as well as evaluation of the surgical outcomes of this procedure.
Methods: Prospective case series study of 42 cases of chronic calcular submandibular sialadenitis that underwent SMG excision by the same surgical team during the period from 2017 to 2021. The initial surgical plan in all cases was to excise the SMG with preservation of the facial artery and without drain insertion.
