Hemangiomas are the most common masses of the major salivary glands in parotid glands in childhood particularly. They occur more frequently in the parotid gland and rarely the submandibular gland. Changes in blood flow dynamics within hemangiomas may induce thrombus formation and phleboliths. Cavernous hemangioma may lead to thrombophlebitis in major salivary glands in adults. To our knowledge, cavernous hemangioma of submandibular glands containing phleboliths in childhood has not been described so far in the literature. In this article, we report the first pediatric case of a cavernous hemangioma containing multiple phleboliths in the submandibular gland mimicking submandibular sialolithiasis in a seven-year-old boy.
血管瘤是儿童期腮腺中最常见的主要唾液腺肿物，尤其多见于腮腺。它们在腮腺中更常见，而在下颌下腺中很少见。血管瘤内血流动力学的改变可能导致血栓形成和静脉石。海绵状血管瘤在成人的主要唾液腺中可能导致血栓性静脉炎。据我们所知，目前文献中尚未描述儿童期下颌下腺含有静脉石的海绵状血管瘤。在本文中，我们报告了首例七岁男孩下颌下腺含有多个静脉石的海绵状血管瘤，该病例酷似下颌下腺涎石病。
