Sialolithiasis is a common disease of the major salivary glands and frequently seen in the submandibular gland but rarely seen in the sublingual gland. It affects 12 out of 1000 in the adult population with a male/female ratio of 2/1. Sialolithiasis is a common etiology of salivary gland obstruction, causing recurrent painful swelling (especially while eating) and dysphagia can be present in extended lesions. With regard to the literature, large sublingual sialoliths have rarely been reported. Our aim is to review the literature and report a case of a 41-year-old woman, who presented due to a sialolith in the sublingual gland measuring 23 mm in length, with review of the various available diagnostic modalities and treatment options.
