Giant Submandibular Gland Duct Sialolith: A Case Report
Sialolitler tükrük bezlerinin duktal sistemi içerisinde gelişen kalsifiye yapılar olarak bilinmektedir.Oluşma nedenlerine dikkat etmemiz gerekirse genellikle tekrarlayan kronik ve akut süpürativ sialodenitis sonucu oluşduğu varsayılmaktadır.Sialolitler içerik olarak inorganik kalsium ve sodium fosfat tuzlarından oluşmaktadır. Bu sialolitlerin kanal lümenindeki bir debris etrafında farklı çeşit tuzların birikmesinden kaynaklandığına inanılmaktadır.Dev sialolit dediğimizde uzunluk olarak 15 mm ve ağırlık olarak 1gramdan ağır sialolitlerr düşünülmektedir.Bu olgu sunumunda submandibuler duktusda lokalize olan 2*1*1 boyutlarında bir sialolit intraoral yaklaşımla eksize edilmiş ve duktusun fonksiyonu normal tükrük akışı ile berpa edilmişdir

Giant Submandibular Gland Duct Sialolith: A Case Report
Sialoliths are known as calcified structures developed within the ductal system of salivary glands. It is assumed that if we need to pay attention to the causes of the event, it is usually the result of recurrent chronic and acute sialodenitis. It is believed that these sialolites are caused by the accumulation of different kinds of salts around a debris in the channel lumen. When we say huge sialolite, we mean that sialolites which are bigger than 15 mm in length and more than 1 g in weight. In this case report of a sialolith of 2 *1* 1 cm size localized in the submandibular duct was excised with an intraoral approach and the function of the duct was reestablished again with normal salivary flow.
