Abstract

Rhinosporidiosis is a common condition seen in India specially in endemic areas and in low socio economic areas. Here we present with a rare presentation of cheek swelling caused by obstruction of stenson's duct with a short history of 5 months. Sialolith of parotid duct is uncommon presentation but not unheard of, the subsequent treatment and further histopathology of the ductoceol reveled the causative factor for the obstruction of parotid duct was Rhinosporidiosis which a very rare presentation with very few cases reported in literature. On further investigations it was found to be primary Rhinosporidiosis. Hence it is eminent that Rhinosporidiosis should also be kept in mind while looking for a cause for salivary duct obstruction specially in endemic areas.
