The common causes can be weapons, contusions, iatrogenic injuries secondary to surgical procedures. Was presented a 24-year-old male patient with a clinical case of one and a half months of evolution approximately, characterized by suffering a trauma in the right mandibular angle with a beam that later was subsequently damaged and caused a sacular dilation of the Stenon conduct, which evolved to fistula of the same, who has to be performed cervical exploration surgery and salivary fistula closure and resection of the sacular dilation are performed. Obtained surgical management due to the magnitude of the damage and the time elapsed, in contrast to the new conservative approaches in which antisialogogues are administered and the closing of the wound is conservatively controlled.
