The joy, curiosity and energy all wrapped up in tiny humans. This curiosity and lesser motor coordination usually leads to increased incidence of falls in children which leads to traumatic dental injuries. Trauma to the oral region may damage teeth, lips, cheeks, tongue, and temporomandibular joints. These traumatic injuries are the second most important issue in dentistry, after the tooth decay.

  • Phenobarbital-Responsive Bilateral Zygomatic Sialadenitis Following an Enterotomy in a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
    Research Journal for Veterinary Practitioners Case Report Phenobarbital-Responsive Bilateral Zygomatic Sialadenitis following an Enterotomy in a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel PAOUL S MARTINEZ, RENEE CARTER, LORRIE GASCHEN, KIRK RYAN Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA. Abstract | A 6 year old male castrated Cavalier King Charles Spaniel presented to the Louisiana State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital for a three day history of bilateral acute trismus, exophthalmos, and blindness. These signs developed after an exploratory laparotomy and gastrointestinal foreign body removal was performed. On pre- sentation, the ophthalmic examination revealed bilateral decreased retropulsion, absent bilateral direct and consensual pupillary light responses, bilateral blindness, and a superficial ulcer in right eye. Ocular ultrasound and computed to- mography of the skull were performed and identified a bilateral retrobulbar mass effect originating from the zygomatic salivary glands. Ultrasound guided fine needle aspirate cytology revealed neutrophilic inflammation. Fungal testing and bacterial cultures were performed which were negative for identification of an infectious organism. The patient was placed on a 5-day course of antibiotic therapy and the response was poor. Phenobarbital was added to the treatment regimen. Two days following phenobarbital administration, the exophthalmos and trismus began to resolve. Following phenobarbital therapy, ocular position normalized, trismus completely resolved, and patient returned to normal behav- ior although blindness remained in both eyes. No other neurologic condition occurred. This paper highlights the early use of phenobarbital for the rapid resolution of zygomatic sialadenitis.

This rare disease is characterized by recurrent swelling of the salivary glands, which then discharge clots of fibrin into the oral cavity. An 80-year-old man with a history of allergic rhinitis visited our department with the chief complaint of pain in the bilateral parotid gland area on eating. An initial examination revealed mild swelling and tenderness in this region, and indurations could be felt around the bilateral parotid papillae. Pressure on the parotid glands induced discharge of gelatinous plugs from the parotid papillae. No pus was discharged, and there were no palpable hard objects. Panoramic X-ray showed no obvious focus of dental infection, and there was no calcification in the parotid gland region. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed segmental dilatation of the main ducts of both parotid ducts, with no signs of displacement due to sialoliths or tumors, or of abnormal saliva leakage. Two courses of antibiotic therapy resulted in no improvement. During treatment, gelatinous plugs (fibrin clots) obstructing the left parotid duct were dislodged by massage, which prevented further blockage by encouraging salivary outflow.

Immunohistochemistry detected the antigen of caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) in the LEC, salivary gland, and lung tissue. In human patients, a LEC of the major salivary gland is an uncommon benign lesion and may be the early clinical manifestation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The present report provides useful information on the comparative aspect of LEC in an animal infected with CAEV, one of the SRLVs usually associated with chronic infection. Although many hypothetic theories were proposed, the etiopathogenesis of LEC is still debated. In this study, we present the histopathological description of LEC, supported by histochemistry and immunohistochemistry.

ABSTRACT Fibrinous sialodochitis is a very rare disease in which the recurrent swelling of the salivary gland is caused by the ob- struction of the glandular duct by a fibrinous material. Few studies have reported both the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of fibrinous sialodochitis. We reported a forty-nine-year-old man with this disease including CT and MRI findings. His chief complaint was the recurrent swelling of the bilateral submandibular regions. When his primary dentist pushed them strongly, a whitish jelly-like material and a large amount of clear saliva were expelled from the duct orifices of the submandibular glands.

A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who visited the Department of Oral Medicine from March 2019 to March 2020.Clinically diagnosed cases of salivary gland diseases which included salivary gland neoplasms, xerostomia, necrotizing sialometaplasia, mucocele, ranula, sjogren’s syndrome, sialodochitis, sialadenitis were included in the study.The details of each case were reviewed from an electronic database.From the study we found that 17 patients were diagnosed with salivary gland disease.The most commonly observed salivary gland disease was mucocele of the lip with a frequency of 41.17% in the study population followed by xerostomia (17.65%).Salivary gland disease can occur due to variable causes and might significantly affect the quality of life and daily functioning.Only with a thorough knowledge of the subject it is possible to detect the diseases of the salivary gland in their early stage and manage them more efficiently.

Study Design: An obstructive disease is the usual diagnosis in case of Methods: Diagnostic and interventional sialendos- unilateral diffuse parotid swelling (after exclusion of mumps copy procedures were performed in 79 and 55 cases, parotitis). The classic attitude is an antibiotic and anti- respectively. Diagnostic sialendoscopy was used to inflammatory treatment, followed by radiological studies, classify ductal lesions into sialolithiasis, stenosis, sia- usually sialography,1 which is still considered the gold stan- lodochitis, and polyps. Interventional sialendoscopy dard. Diagnostic sialendoscopy is a recent procedure2,3 al- was used to treat these disorders. The type of endo- scope used, the type of sialolithiasis fragmentation lowing complete visualization of the ductal system and its and/or extraction device used, the total number of diseases and disorders. Major advances in optical technolo- procedures, the type of anesthesia, and the number gies and the development of semirigid sialendoscopes are and size of the sialoliths removed were the dependent responsible for significant progress in salivary gland endos- variables. The outcome variable was the endoscopic copy.4,5 This procedure, by allowing the complete exploration clearing of the ductal tree and resolution of symp- of the salivary ductal system, is positioned to replace sialog- toms. Results: Diagnostic sialendoscopy was possible raphy and other radiological studies6 because of its higher ؎ in all cases, with an average duration of 26 14 min- specificity and cost-effectiveness.
