The Salivary Glands

2014
The first line of approach in the diagnosis of salivary gland masses is to perform a fine-needle aspiration (FNA). The use of ultrasound (US) to guide the needle and sample the most appropriate area of the lesion in small palpable or non-palpable lesions greatly improves the diagnostic accuracy and helps planning the most appropriate clinical ...

Salivary gland counterbalance

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1974
Abstract The phenomenon known as renal counterbalance and its sequela, compensatory renal hypertrophy, has been accepted by urologists for five decades. Recognition of this situation in the paired salivary gland system is not so well appreciated. A study is reported demonstrating salivary gland hypertrophy in the dog when the animal is subjected to ...

Tumors of the Salivary Glands

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2006
This article reviews the role of imaging in the management of tumors of the salivary glands, discussing tumor localization, extent, and, where possible, characterization. The relative benefits of the different modalities and the typical features of benign and malignant lesions are discussed for each modality.

Sialadenosis of the salivary glands

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1995
Sialadenosis (sialosis) is an uncommon, non-inflammatory condition which usually causes bilateral, diffuse enlargement of the salivary glands, particularly the parotid. We present a series of 7 patients with sialadenosis. Two had bilateral and 4 unilateral parotid involvement. One patient had unilateral submandibular gland sialadenosis. One patient had

Salivary gland tumors

Current Opinion in Oncology, 1993
Salivary gland cancers continue to pose both diagnostic and treatment dilemmas. Over the past year, a great deal has been written concerning salivary gland tumors in children, fine needle aspiration for salivary gland neoplasms, prognostic factors, and pathologic evaluation and treatment.

Salivary Gland Dysfunction

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1992
Clinically significant declines of salivary output are not a function of aging. Complaints of oral dryness (xerostomia) are common in the elderly patient, however. This complaint is most often a consequence of medications; tricyclic antidepressants, certain antihypertensives, and anticholinergics can cause marked decreases in salivary flow rates. Other

The Salivary Glands

2021
The ultrasound evaluation of salivary glands is increasingly used in assessing salivary gland involvement in Sjogren’s syndrome. There are two groups of salivary grands, i.e. major salivary glands and minor salivary glands. In Sjogren’s syndrome patients, ultrasound of major salivary glands (i.e.

Inflammation in the salivary glands

British Journal of Oral Surgery, 1965
Summary The great majority of patients with Sjogren's syndrome suffer from xerostomia and a specific salivary gland abnormality based upon a generalized disturbance of immunological reactivity. The aetiology of this is essentially unknown, and no curative treatment is available.
