Congenital absence of the major salivary glands is an infrequent disorder. Clinically, patients may be asymptomatic or may present with dryness of the mouth, difficulty in chewing and swallowing, and dental caries. The absence of the submandibular gland may be associated with hypertrophy of the contralateral submandibular gland. We report a case of ipsilateral sublingual hypertrophy associated with unilateral submandibular aplasia.
先天性大唾液腺缺失是一种罕见的疾病。临床上,患者可能无症状,或可能出现口干、咀嚼和吞咽困难以及龋齿。下颌下腺缺失可能与对侧下颌下腺肥大有关。我们报告一例与单侧下颌下腺发育不全相关的同侧舌下腺肥大病例。
