Overview
Parotitis is most commonly caused by viral or bacterial infections, but can also result from autoimmune syndromes, parotid gland blockages, and from diseases with uncertain etiologies.
Causes
Infection
- Acute viral parotitis
- Acute bacterial parotitis:
- The most common cause of bacterial parotitis is Staphylococcus aureus[1]
- Other bacterial causes of parotitis include the following:
- Extrapulmonary tuberculosis
- Parotitis can result as a symptom of acute tuberculosis[3]
Autoimmune Causes
- Sjögren's Syndrome
- Parotitis can result from Sjögren's syndrome due to chronic inflammation of the parotid gland.[4]
Blockage
- Parotitis can result from the following forms of blockages:
- Sialolithiasis: salivary gland calcified stones, causing parotid gland inflammation.[5]
- Mucous plugs[6]
- Benign or malignant neoplasia.[7]
Diseases of Uncertain Etiology
- The following diseases are of uncertain etiology that can cause parotitis:
- Chronic nonspecific parotitis
- Recurrent childhood parotitis
- Sialadenosis
- Sarcoidosis
- Pneumoparotitis
