Salivary Gland Diseases

Dental Clinics of North America, 2020
A variety of diseases ranging from obstructions, infections, to benign and malignant tumors occur in salivary glands. The most common problem is painful blockage of ducts by stones that prevents drainage of saliva. Sialadenitis can be due to either infectious or noninfectious factors.

Salivary Gland Disease

2010
Salivary gland disease covers a wide range of pathological entities, including salivary gland-specific disease, as well as manifestations of systemic diseases. This chapter discusses the recent advances in managing obstructive salivary gland disease, the move from gland excision to gland preservation, the dilemmas in diagnosing and managing tumours of ...

Morphological differences between regenerating salivary glands after salivary gland duct ligation and embryonic salivary glands

Annals of Anatomy - Anatomischer Anzeiger, 2020
Most animals and organs have regenerative capabilities. Whether regeneration is a developmental process or a distinct phenomenon that is independent of development is debatable.We examined the differences between developing and regenerating salivary glands using duct-ligation models.

Salivary Gland Emergencies

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2013
Salivary gland disorders are uncommon in the emergency department setting. Given the vast differential that spans infectious, autoimmune, neoplastic, and metabolic processes, they can pose a diagnostic challenge even to skilled clinicians. There is a paucity of evidence-based data regarding the management of these disorders with frequent incongruence ...

Salivary gland development

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2007
Salivary glands provide an excellent model for the study of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions and branching morphogenesis. This review will discuss the anatomy of different types of glands, in a range of different organisms. Then, concentrating on the mouse submandibular gland, the stages of salivary gland development will be reviewed and the ...

Salivary gland carcinomas

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2012
Salivary gland carcinomas are rare tumours of heterogeneous morphology that require distinctive surgical and adjuvant therapy.Relevant studies were electronically searched in PubMed and reviewed for innovative and important information.Recent insights in genetic alterations like chromosomal aberrations, expression of receptor tyrosine kinases ...

Salivary gland organogenesis

WIREs Developmental Biology, 2011
AbstractOur understanding of vertebrate salivary gland organogenesis has been largely informed by the study of the developing mouse submandibular gland (SMG), which will be the major focus of this review. The mouse SMG has been historically used as a model system to study epithelial–mesenchymal interactions, growth factor–extracellular matrix (ECM ...

Salivary Gland Regeneration

2010
The ability of animal salivary glands to recover from an experimentally-induced atrophic state offers hope that human salivary glands may be regenerated following injury. Examination of the mechanisms of regeneration in animal models has revealed processes which resemble the embryonic formation of salivary glands.

Minor Salivary Gland Transplantation

2008
Minor oral salivary glands exist in large numbers in the labial, buccal and palatal mucosa, and account for approximately half of the baseline secretion of saliva. They can be transplanted together with the overlying mucosa as a complex graft to the posterior lamella of the eyelids to increase ocular surface lubrication and reduce discomfort in dry ...
