Article Synopsis
- - The text discusses a rare case of bilateral aplasia of submandibular glands in a 55-year-old male, who had noticeable masses under his tongue.
- - Imaging techniques like CT and MRI showed that the submandibular glands were missing, and the parotid and sublingual glands had grown larger to compensate, causing them to push through the muscles in the area.
- - The authors recommend considering the possibility of enlarged sublingual glands in patients with similar symptoms to prevent unnecessary surgeries and advise conducting imaging studies before any procedures.
