Abstract

Sialolithiasis is the formation of calcific concretions within the ductal system of major or minor salivary glands. The submandibular gland is most involved because of its high viscosity of the saliva and the long, curved duct. It may occur at any age but, it is most common in middle-aged adults and rare in childhood. Clinical symptoms in sialolithiasis are variable but, swelling is the most common, followed by the pain. Clinical examination and radiographic examination(panoramic and mandibular occlusal radiographs, sialography, intraoral-, extraoral- ultrasound, CT scan, MRI and sialoendoscopy) can help to confirm a diagnosis and localize a stone. The treatment is surgical intervention, either removal of the sialolith or sialoadenectomy. However, non-invasive techniques including shock-wave lithotripsy, $CO_2$ laser and endoscopic treatment used in selected cases. A 5-Year-old girl referred from private practice for evaluation of a yellowish mass on the floor of the mouth. She complained that it had became three times bigger than four months ago when it was found for the first time and she had some pain on submandibular gland area occasionally. On physical examination, a firm and yellowish mass could be seen at the orifice of the submandibular duct. Diagnosis is the submandibular sialolithiasis in the anterior Wharton`s duct. Under local anesthesia, stone was removed.

타석증은 대, 소타액선의 도관내에 석회화 물질이 형성되는 것이다. 타액의 점도가 높고 도관이 길고 구부러진 악하선에서 가장 호발한다. 어떤 나이에서도 발생할 수 있지만, 중년에서 호발하며 어린이에서는 드물다. 타석증의 임상 증상은 다양하지만, 부종이 가장 흔하며, 그 다음이 동통이다. 임상 검사와 방사선 검사(파노라믹 방사선 사진, 하악 교합면 방사선 사진, 타액선 조영술, 구강 내 및 구강 외 초음파, CT, MRI, 타액선 내시경)가 타석증의 진단 및 타석의 위치를 확인하는 데 도움을 준다. 치료는 도관의 절개에 의한 타석의 제거나 타액선의 절개를 포함하는 수술적 치료가 많다. 그러나, 일부는 쇄석술과 $CO_2$ 레이저, 내시경 등의 비침습적인 기술을 사용할 수 있다. 5세 여환이 구강저의 노란색 물질을 주소로 개인 병원에서 의뢰되었다. 4개월 전 처음 발견했을 때보다 3배 더 커졌으며 때때로 동통이 있었다고 하였다. 임상 검사 상, 노란색의 단단한 물질이 악하선 도관의 입구에서 관찰되었다. 와튼스 도관의 전방부에 발생한 악하선 타석증으로 진단내렸다. 국소마취하에 타석을 적출하였다.
