ABSTRACT
Salivary fistulas usually originate from parotid gland. It can be classified with internal or external, congenital or acquired types. Most of fistulas belong to acquired cases and arise secondarily to surgery, trauma or inflammation.
We experienced a case of sialocutaneous fistula originated from parotid gland which arised after incision and drainage at childhood. Increased flow of saliva from fistula was noted with mastication. The fistula was removed successfully by the way of superficial parotidectomy with fistulectomy. So, we report this case with review of the literatures.
