| Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis or a Ku ¨ttner tumor is a benign inflammatory condition
characterized by firm swelling of the salivary gland. This disease may clinically mimic
Sjo ¨gren's syndrome or a salivary gland origin neoplasm. Various sonographic findings
in patients with a Ku ¨ttner tumor were described in previous studies. Here, we describe
a rare case of a 60-year-old man presenting with a non-tender right-sided parotid
mass and swelling of both submandibular glands. A pathologic examination of the
lesions in the right parotid gland and both submandibular glands indicated the presence
of K¨uttner tumors of various sonographic appearances. |
