Idiopathic recurrent pneumoparotitisis a clinical condition that we encountered very rarely. Usually gives symptoms with a painful swelling of the parotid gland. Air in the parotid gland is a characteristic finding. In the etiology, dental instrumentation or repeated Valsalva maneuver can be considered. As can be seen secondary to an inflammatory process, idiopathic cases may also occur rarely. It is a self-limiting disease. Here we present a child case of idiopathic recurrent pneumoparotitis.
