7 patients with uni- and bilateral Whartin tumors are examined. In comparison to sialographic and scintigraphic findings simultaneous estimations of flowrate, total protein, immunoglobulin A and lysozyme excretion of these glands in rest and under stimulation are done. Thereby the following results were found: 1. Flowrate is normal like in glands with pleomorphic adenomas. 2. Total protein secretion is significant lower in stimulated secretions. 3. Immunoglobulin A secretion is diminished in stimulated secretions, lysozyme is diminished under rest and stimulation.
