Fully Calcified Salivary Gland Successfully Removed at Aswan Specialized Hospital

Doctors at Aswan Specialized Hospital have successfully performed a rare operation to remove a fully calcified salivary gland.

The affected gland was located beneath the jaw. The procedure involved removing the gland itself, rather than extracting an individual salivary stone.

The operation was carried out by the hospital’s oral and maxillofacial surgery team and was described as a delicate surgical intervention.

The brief account confirmed the successful removal but provided no further details about the patient’s condition or postoperative recovery.
