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 tumor) redirects here.[1]

General

Etiology:[3]

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.

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.
