Abstract

Sialoliths are stones occuring in the majör or minör salivary glands. In our case series, four out of five submandibular sialoliths were detected on the panoramic radiographs, and one case was detected on the occlusal radiograph. In one of the cases that we examined ultrasonographically, sialolith was demonstrated as a hyperechoic mas, and the other was found as a hyperechoic mass together with posterior acoustic shadow. In the case that we performed sialography as we could not demonstrate the sialolith on ultrasonography, the status of the intraglandular canalicles and Wharton's duct could be seen, and a partial filling defect that permits salivary flow, was detected. Occlusal and panoramic radiographs and ultrasonography, and if needed, sialography can be used in the imaging of sialoliths.

Özet

Siyalolitler, majör ve minör tükürük bezlerinde veya kanallarında oluşan taşlardır. Vaka serimizde beş submandibuler siyalolit olgusunun dördü panoramik radyografta tespit edilmiş; bir olguda da siyalolit okuzal radyografta izlenmiştir. Ultrasonografik inceleme yapılan üç olgunun birinde siyalolit hiperekoik kitle olarak, birinde posterior akustik gölge ile birlikte hiperekoik olarak görüntülenmiş, bir olguda ise siyalolitle uyumlu görüntü elde edilememiştir. Ultrasonografide siyalolit izlenememesi nedeni ile sialografi yapılan olguda intraglanduler kanallar ve Wharton kanalının durumu izlenebilmiş; siyalolitle uyumlu, tükürük akışına izin veren kısmi dolum defekti gözlenmiştir. Submandibuler siyalolitlerin görüntülenmesinde okluzal ve panoramik radyograflardan ve ultrasonografiden, gerekirse sialografiden yararlanılabilir.
