Overview

Sialolithiasis was first discovered by Küttner, a German physician, in 1896 during investigation of chronically swollen submandibular gland. Sialadenoscope were used for the first time in 1991.

Historical Perspective

Following are a few important aspects about the history of sialolithiasis.

Discovery

  • In 1543, Andreas Vesalius, was the first person who used the name salivary gland.
  • Sialolithiasis was first discovered by Küttner, a German physician, in 1896 during investigation of chronically swollen submandibular gland.

Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies

  • In 1991 for the first time sialoendoscopes were used.[1]
  • In 1765, Lorenz Heister described the first parotidectomy for salivary stones. [2]
  • In1996, Lomas et al. decribed magnetic resonance sialography for diagnosis of sialolithiasis.[3]
  • George Mc Clellan performed the first parotidectomy due to cancer in the USA in 1805.
