Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Manukau Super Clinic, Counties Manukau District Health Board, Auckland, New Zealand.
Objective/hypothesis: To evaluate clinical outcomes following failed endoscopic extraction of salivary calculi and to assess any relation between clinical outcome and calculi location, number, size, and mobility. If sialendoscopy fails to extract the calculus, subsequent spontaneous passage of the calculus out of the ductoglandular system or secondary effects of sialendoscopy could mitigate the clinical impact of a residual sialolithiasis.
