Abstract

A 63 year-old man who had had an operation for adenocarcinoma of the left parotid gland presented with worsening trismus after the completion of radiotherapy. None of the treatments given were successful so he resorted to a "home-made" approach, and succeeded in improving his mouth-opening by 18 mm.
