A1 - Sachchar, A A1 - Banode, P SP - 81 EP - 82 VL - 13 IS - 2 N2 - Blunt trauma to the parotid gland is extremely rare and requires considerable force. We present a unique case in which a child sustained parotid injury without any associated injury to the facial skeleton, parotid gland and ductal structures and managed successfully. A literature search revealed that this type of injury has not been reported previously. Language: en LA - SN - 0971-9261 UR - http://dx.doi.org/ ID - ref1 ER -
