general trend in laryngeal cancer
decrease surgery increase Ctx/Rtx decrease survival increase co-morbidities MORAL OF THE STORY= DO MORE SURGERY

medical treatment for both acute sialadenitis and sialolithiasis
- hydration
- compression and massage
- antibiotics (clindamycin)
+ sialologues– acute sialadenitis
+ STOP smoking– acute sialadenitis
surgery for acute sialadenitis
incise and drain OR excision (recurrent or refractory)
surgery for sialolithiasis
- endoscopic: duct cannulation with stone removal
- excision (Recurrent)
