A morphological peculiarity was observed in the form of a submandibular gland having three ducts. These ducts opened separately into the oral cavity. Only the upper and the largest of these three ducts was in the usual position and had the expected relation to the lingual nerve. Such a condition is to be kept in mind by a surgeon or a radiologist performing sialography. Unless each of the duct in instilled he may miss pathological findings.
观察到一种形态学上的特殊情况，表现为一个有三条导管的下颌下腺。这些导管分别开口于口腔。在这三条导管中，只有最上方且最大的那条导管处于正常位置，并与舌神经保持预期的关系。进行涎管造影的外科医生或放射科医生应牢记这种情况。除非对每条导管都进行注入造影剂操作，否则可能会遗漏病理发现。
