Crystalloids found in salivary duct cysts of the human parotid gland were examined by scanning electron microscopical observations with electron probe X-ray microanalysis. The cystic spaces were filled with numerous crystalloids which had a variety of forms with slight eosinophilic and glassy appearance. Scanning electron microscopically, crystalloids were hexagonal and rhombohedral in shape, and cutting the surface showed a polycyclic structure or regular parallel lamination. By electron probe X-ray microanalysis, sulphur was the only detected element. The present study suggests that crystalloids resulted from deposition from supersaturated saliva containing sulphur containing compounds into the cystic lumen or into epithelial cytoplasm.
通过扫描电子显微镜观察和电子探针X射线微分析，对在人类腮腺唾液腺导管囊肿中发现的晶体进行了检查。囊腔内充满了大量晶体，这些晶体具有多种形态，呈轻微嗜酸性和玻璃样外观。扫描电子显微镜下，晶体呈六边形和菱形，切割其表面显示出多环结构或规则的平行层理。通过电子探针X射线微分析，仅检测到硫元素。本研究表明，晶体是由含有含硫化合物的过饱和唾液沉积到囊腔或上皮细胞质中形成的。
