The salivary glands of 32 patients were studied with scintillography. Ten patients were normal controls, while the remaining 22 patients had various disease processes involving their salivary glands. Scintillography was performed by two methods: the standard technique utilizing intravenous isotope injection and selective scintillography. According to this latter method, the radioisotope used is administered only to the gland under investigation by selective catheterization. The present study includes the results of this work, the advantages and disadvantages of each technique employed, and the indications for further use of selective scintillography.

Backgroud: Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy with a generally dismal prognosis and no standard of care established, despite a known association with epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and androgen receptor (AR) over-expression.
Case: We report the case of a 64-year-old female with extra- and intracranial metastases of SDC with evidence of AR and HER2 overexpression. After progression on first line chemotherapy, was administered neratinib, a pan-Erb2 receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

Objective: Submandibular salivary gland inflammation has been suggested as one of the mechanisms underlying impaired salivary secretion associated with sleep deprivation (SD). However, whether the salivary inflammatory response occurs to the same extent in paradoxical sleep deprivation with or without sleep recovery remains unknown. This study evaluated the extent to which inflammation influences salivary impairments associated with paradoxical sleep deprivation with or without sleep recovery.

Although sialoblastoma (SBL) is defined as a low-grade malignant salivary gland anlage neoplasm in the 2022 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Head and Neck Tumors, its histology, genetics, and behavior remain controversial due to the rarity of the tumor. Here, we performed the first comprehensive clinical, histologic, and molecular analyses of 8 SBLs to better understand their pathogenesis and prognosis. This cohort consisted of 5 boys and 3 girls, with ages ranging from birth to 9 years at diagnosis.
