Sialadenitis is among the most common conditions that affect the salivary glands. Inflammation of the salivary glands occurs as the end result of a variety of pathologic conditions, including infectious, autoimmune, and idiopathic causes. Clinically, inflammation of the salivary gland causes pain and localized swelling. The presentation may be acute or chronic, and can be recurrent. Because there is significant overlap of underlying disease mechanisms and clinical presentations, radiologic evaluation often plays a significant role in evaluation. This article is a brief review of sialadenitis, including disease mechanisms, causes, and the practical imaging of the salivary glands.
涎腺炎是影响唾液腺的最常见病症之一。唾液腺炎症是多种病理状况的最终结果，包括感染性、自身免疫性和特发性病因。临床上，唾液腺炎症会导致疼痛和局部肿胀。其表现可能为急性或慢性，且可能会复发。由于潜在疾病机制和临床表现存在显著重叠，放射学评估在诊断中往往发挥重要作用。本文是对涎腺炎的简要综述，包括疾病机制、病因以及唾液腺的实用影像学检查。
