“…Some authors have reported that submandibular sialolithiasis causes a reduction of the salivary flow 15 , while others as Gaetti et al state that salivary flow is increased due to glandular enlargement 6,16 . In the present case, despite that a sialometry was not performed to check if there was a reduction of the salivary flow, no clinical or symptomatic evidence of changes or alterations occurred in the flow.…”

Abstract:It has been shown that about 1% of the population suffers from calculi of the salivary glands; 80% of them occur in the submandibular gland. The aim of this paper is to present a clinical case of a 34-year-old patient, who was diagnosed with submandibular sialolithiasis and treated surgically for the total removal of the lesion and of the salivary gland, removing the swelling and acute pain. The diagnosis and treatment protocol for sialolithiasis of submandibular gland was carried out according to the latest guidelines, resulting in complete remission of the disease, without functional sequelae during the three months of postoperative follow-up.

The most common non-neoplastic salivary gland disease is obstructive sialadenitis. Sialoliths are the main cause of obstructive submandibular sialadenitis. Sialolithiasis leads to recurrent painful swelling of the involved gland, which increases in size during meals. Sialoliths occurs commonly in the submandibular gland in 80% of the cases. Pathogenesis of sialolithiasis seems to be based on anatomical position of the salivary duct and gland. This article reports a case of submandibular gland sialolithiasis with chronic sialadenitis of the right side in 55-year-old male patient with recurrent symptoms of pain and swelling during mealtime. Clinical and radiographic fi ndings are important in determining the precise location and size of the sialolith. It helps in establishing the right treatment for the individual patient. Diagnosis of sialolithiasis is based on careful consideration of patient history and thorough clinical examination which demonstrates its typical symptoms.

“…Bu geçici ağrının sebebinin sialolitin, wharton kanalını tam olarak tıkamaması ve kanalın bir kısmından tükürük akışının sağlanması olduğu düşünülmektedir. Ağız kuruluğu (37), ağız tabanında farkedilebilir şişlik (32), submandibular bölgede şiddetli ağrı ve ağız açmada kısıtlılığa bağlı konuşmada güçlüğe sebep olan (38), olgular da bildirilmiştir.…”

ÖZSialolitler tükürük bezlerinde bulunan kalsifiye organik yapılardır. Tükürük bezi taşları en sık submandibular bezde görülmekle birlikte, ikinci sıklıkla parotis bezinde görülürler. Sublingual bezlerde ve minor tükürük bezlerinde daha nadir izlenirler. Literatürdeki olguların çoğu, bez parankiminde oluşan tükürük bezi taşlarından oluşmaktadır ve sıklıkla 3-7 mm boyutunda izlenirler. Bu makalede submandibular bez hilumunda oluşan, 20x18 mm boyutundaki submandibular tükürük bezi taşı literatür derlemesi ile birlikte sunulmaktadır.Anahtar sözcükler: Sialolit, Tükürük bezleri, Submandibular tükürük bezi. ABSTRACTSialoliths are calcified organic materials that forms in the salivary glands. Sialoliths are most commonly found in the submandibular gland, followed by the parotid gland. They are less common in the sublingual glands and minor salivary glands. Large sialoliths have been reported in the parenchyma of salivary glands and are often seen in 3-7 mm size. In this case report, 20x18 mm sialolith which is formed in hilum of submandibular salivary gland is presented together with the literature review.
