Submandibular sialadenitis

◼️Sialadenitis is a term given to inflammation of the salivary gland.

◼️It may be viral or bacterial, viral infection is usually caused by mumps virus, bacterial infection is more common and is caused by an obstruction in the submandibular duct system

◼️Obstruction is usually caused by stones, salivary gland stones are most common in the submandibular gland as secretions are viscid and are more difficult to drain compared to the watery secretions of the parotids

◼️80% of submandibular gland stones are radio-opaque,and can be seen by inferior occlusal view,the above figure shows two stones, large arrow shows a small stone near the sublingual papilla small arrow shows a larger stone near the gland's hilum

◼️Clinical presentation depends on degree of obstruction,complete obstruction usually caused by stones at the ductal opening present with pain and swelling precipitated by meals partial obstruction present with infrequent symptoms with less pain and swelling.

High yield notes about salivary gland disorders

◼️80% of parotid tumors are benign, the commonest one is pleomorphic adenoma, 80% of parotid tumors arise in their superficial part.

◼️Pleomorphic adenoma has an incomplete capsule, enucleation of the tumor results in recurrence in most cases as seeds of cells are likely left behind.

◼️Medial displacement of the tonsil can be caused by enlargement of the deep part of parotid gland, a part of the parotid gland loops around the mandibular ramus.

◼️Salivary gland stones are commonest in the submandibular gland.

◼️Parotid gland stones are less common because its secretions are watery and its duct drains more easily compared to the viscid secretions of the submandibular gland and its up sloping duct making drainage more difficult.

◼️Plunging ranulas occur only in the sublingual gland because its the only salivary gland which secretes continuously.

◼️Although generally rare, the majority of tumors arising in the sublingual gland are malignant (90%).

◼️The vast majority of minor salivary gland tumors are malignant.

◼️Drainage of an abscess in the parotid gland should be done by Hilton's method to safeguard the facial nerve.
