“…The retrograde flow of air through the Stenon's orifice during straining and coughing under anesthesia, retention of secretions causing occlusion of the salivary ducts, perioperative use of various drugs like atropine, succinylcholine and morphine, and systemic dehydration are the most commonly accused factors.

Acute swelling of the parotid gland after general anesthesia (commonly known as anesthesia mumps or acute postoperative sialadenitis) is a rare but declared complication of anesthesia. The etiology is not clear, but some possible causes such as obstruction of glandular excretory ducts caused by patient position and increase in the viscosity of the saliva because of acute dehydratation and/or medications like atropin have been proposed. We report a swelling in the left preauricular and postauricular region extending to the angle of the mandibule in a 35-year-old patient after left lateral decubitus position for laparoscopic nephrectomy.

“…Just like in the report by Ak0aboy et al, 1 one can only speculate on the etiology of this rare and apparently harmless occurrence. This speculation seems to be further complicated because of the unilaterality of the swelling in spite of the bilateral ECT.…”

examination of stimulus parameters by Peterchev et al 6 synthesizes past and recent knowledge, with a view toward future developments in ECT. It is only by opening our minds to these possibilities that future advances will be made in research and clinical practice. Perhaps I am an idealist, but I would like every ECT practitioner to have an understanding of ECT that goes beyond the clinical procedures performed in the ward and ECT suite.

“…Retrograde passage of air into the parotid gland along the Stensen's duct and occlusion of this duct due to retention of secretions are two major theories for this complication (10)(11). Accordingly, trauma, straining and or coughing during intubation and extubation; vasodilation and hyperemia in the parotid glands; perioperative use of drugs like atropine, succinylcholine and muscle relaxants, venous engorgement of the head and neck; dehydration; and mechanical blockage of the parotid duct by intubation and fixation of the ETT are some of the suggested mechanisms (8,12,13).…”

Acute transient swelling of the parotid glands during or after surgery under general anesthesia was prescribed by previous colleagues. This complication is called anesthesia mumps. We present a case of bilateral parotid swelling noticed early in the intraoperative period. A 52-year-old male patient was scheduled for internal fixation of right tibial fracture under general anesthesia. The surgical procedure was uneventful and lasted for 2.5 hours. But 30 minutes after the beginning of surgery, swelling of both parotid regions was noted. In the recovery unit, the patient had moderate swelling of both parotids, expanding down to the mandibular angle with no complaint of pain, difficulty in swallowing, and dyspnea. Swelling decreased in size after five days and resolved in seven days. It is important to recognize anesthesia mumps as a rare complication that can appear during surgery or in the early postoperative period.

"Anesthesia Mumps" After Electroconvulsive Therapy Anesthesia

Abstract: Acute transient swelling of the parotid gland in association with anesthesia is known as "anesthesia mumps." We report an acute bilateral parotid swelling in a patient after electroconvulsive therapy anesthesia.
