Abstract
We report a case of acute submandibular sialadenitis in a ten days old newborn. The disease was diagnosed at an early stage, therefore rapid antibiotic treatment was initiated, and no surgical intervention was needed. In a long term follow-up, a full recovery was observed. The authors reviewed the literature and describe the common etiologies and recommended treatment options for submandibular sialadenitis.
