Metastases to the salivary glands from distant neoplasms are unusual, with most reported cases involving the parotid gland. Metastatic deposits in the submandibular gland are extremely rare with bilateral involvement not previously reported. We present the case of a patient with advanced breast carcinoma who has had metachronous involvement of both submandibular glands and review the literature on this subject.
远处肿瘤转移至唾液腺的情况并不常见，大多数报道病例累及腮腺。下颌下腺的转移性沉积物极为罕见，此前尚无双侧受累的报道。我们报告一例晚期乳腺癌患者出现双侧下颌下腺异时性受累的病例，并回顾关于该主题的文献。
