The role of salivary duct morphology in the etiology of chronic obstructive parotitis: statistical analysis of sialographic features and computational fluid dynamics analysis of salivary flow

The causes of some cases of chronic obstructive parotitis (COP) without obstructive factors are still unclear. We hypothesized that some morphological features of salivary ducts might contribute to development of COP. This study aims to investigate the role of salivary duct morphology in the etiology of COP.
