The pathogenesis of chronic recurrent parotitis in infants: a study of 93 cases including an analysis of the vascular and glandular changes before and after parasympathectomy.

Abstract	Ninety-three cases of infantile chronic recurrent parotitis are recorded. Fifty-three cases were treated with parasympathectomy which was carried out at 2 levels. Good results were achieved in 79.1% of patients. The paper describes the use of the Doppler examination to study the effects of operation on the physiology of the parotid.
