Parotid cysts ( n  = 4)	Wait and scan ( n  = 3); injection of picibanil ( n  = 1)	100%
Abscess formation ( n  = 4)	Incision	100%
Odontogenic sialadenitis of the submandibular gland ( n  = 2)	Tooth extraction and antibiotics	100%
Stricture of the excretory duct ( n  = 4)	Surgical removal	100%
Lymphangioma ( n  = 6)	Injection of picibanil	100%
Multiple ectasia of the excretory duct of one parotid gland ( n  = 1)	Antibiotics	100%
