Abstract
Combined approach is indicated in case of failure of conservative techniques. It provides good results in removal of lithiasis located in the posterior or middle thirds of the duct. Its morbidity is low. It can avoid performing a parotidectomy and lowers the risk of facial palsy. In case of failure, botulinum toxin injection may be indicated.
