contents <p>Background:Submandibular sialolithiasis is the most common obstructive disorder of the major salivary glands, with a strong predilection for the submandibular gland. While minimally invasive techniques such as sialendoscopy are currently preferred, acute infectious scenarios may require immediate surgical intervention. Methods:We report the case of a 64-year-old female presenting with acute submandibular sialadenitis secondary to a distal sialolith. Clinical examination and intraoral findings guided diagnosis and management. Emergency transoral surgical removal of the calculus was performed under local anesthesia.</p>
