Multiple calcification in the major
salivary glands is very rare.
Sjogren's syndrome is characterized by
tissue damage due to chronic
lymphocyte infiltration of
exocrine glands, and the involvement of the major
salivary glands is followed by typical symptoms such as multiple formation of
sialolith, blockage of
salivary duct, and
edema of the parenchyme. When multiple calcification is found in the parenchyme of
parotid gland on the computed
tomography imaging,
Sjogren syndrome should be considered, where the primary
solution is
conservative treatment and preventing recurrent
inflammation.
