ICRP is an inflammatory disease usually associated to a non-obstructive sialectasis of parotid glands. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of inflammatory volume increase of one or both glands. Occasionally, the episode is accompanied by fever and with the patient feeling unwell. During alternate interepisode periods of normality, lasting from weeks to months, the glands are clinically asymptomatic (Baurmash, 2004; Chitre & Premchandra, 1997). The first episode occurs at ages between 3-months and 13-years old. More frequently, however, the disease appears between 2 and 6 years-old. The number of recurrences varies from one subject to another but an episode every 3 to 4 months is a representative frequency. The highest occurrence frequency is at the first year of school. Then the frequency decays and follows an unpredictable pattern that varies from patient to patient until adolescence. The episodes are manifested by a varying degree of general ill-feeling with moderate fever. Sometimes, this ill condition may oblige to hospitalize the patient for as long as a week (Landaeta et al., 2003). The episodes of gland swelling are associated with upper respiratory conditions, such as a cold, amigdalitis, pneumonia and bronchitis (Landaeta et al., 2003; Vinagre et al., 2003). The incidence rate by sex appears to be identical. Frequently, ICRP occurs unilaterally and among bilateral patients one of the glands is more affected. The increase in parotid volume is quite painful and marked skin redness occurs in the corresponding area. Salivary flow in the affected gland decreases significantly and the corresponding salivary secretion becomes viscous, whitish and mucopurulent (Baurmash, 2004; Chitre & Premchandra, 1997; Vinagre et al., 2003). The inflammatory increase in gland volume may last for 24-hours, 1-2 weeks or, sometimes, several months. After an apparent regression to normality, the gland becomes quiescent until a new inflammatory episode. After puberty symptoms diminish and may fully disappear spontaneously although
