Chronic sialadenitis is a chronic inflammatory process involving a salivary gland.
Chronic sailolithiasis redirects here. Sialadenitis redirects here. Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis (also known as Küttner tumour[1]) redirects here.
General
- Occasionally associated with malignancy, e.g. adenoid cystic carcinoma.[2]
Etiology:[3]
- Infection.
- Autoimmune (e.g. Sjögren syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus).
- Other.
Associations:
Gross
Features:
- Typical location: submandibular salivary gland.
- Salivary gland swelling.[2]
Microscopic
Features:
- Non-neoplastic mononuclear inflammatory infiltrate (lymphocytes, plasma cells).
- Fibrosis.
- +/-Calcifications.
Note:
- If the infiltrate is predominantly lymphocytes Sjögren's is a possibility, and reporting a Focus score should be considered.
DDx:
- Lymphoma - especially MALT lymphoma.[5]
- IgG4-related sialadenitis.[6]

SUBMANDIBULAR GLAND, RIGHT, EXCISION: - CHRONIC SIALOADENITIS. - SIALOLITHIASIS. - TWO BENIGN LYMPH NODES. - NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY.
Micro
The sections show submandibular salivary gland with a mild patchy mixed mononuclear cell infiltrate, fibrosis and a large benign calcification. No zonal necrosis is identified. Significant nuclear atypia is not identified.
Alternate
The sections show a salivary gland with a patchy mixed mononuclear cell infiltrate and fibrosis. Significant nuclear atypia is not identified. Plasma cells are not prominent. Germinal centres are present.
