Idiopathic salivary gland enlargement (sialadenosis) in dogs: a microscopic study
2000
Sozmen, M. | Brown, P. J. | Whitbread, T. J.
A histological, histochemical and morphometric study was performed on submandibular salivary glands from 13 dogs which had presented with a submandibular mass or swelling that proved to be a portion of non‐inflammatory and non‐neoplastic submandibular salivary gland. There were no consistent changes in lectin‐binding histochemistry or immunohistochemical expression of various cell markers, and, in most cases, there was no measurable difference in acinar size in the affected gland. The possible explanation for the clinical salivary gland enlargement is therefore unclear.
