We present 3 cases of Kuttner tumour (or chronic sclerosing sialadenitis of submandibular gland) all treated by surgery. In one case we report bilateral involvement. The disease was first described by Kuttner more than 100 years ago. In the new WHO Classification of tumour-like lesions of the Salivary Glands (1992) Kuttner tumour is classified as a distinct clinicopathologic entity. We also present a review of the literature about etiology, pathogenesis, differential diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Deep learning-based postoperative glioblastoma segmentation and extent of resection evaluation: Development, external validation, and model comparison.
Neurooncol Adv
November 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, RÃo Hortega University Hospital, Valladolid, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- - The research aimed to create a deep learning model for accurately assessing the extent of resection (EOR) in glioblastoma patients using postoperative MRI scans, addressing limitations of existing algorithms that only focus on preoperative images.
- - Utilizing data from multiple sources, the model was trained to segment tumor features like contrast-enhancing tumor, edema, and surgical cavity, and was compared with other segmentation models, showing high performance in classifying resection categories.
- - The study found that the nnU-Net framework outperformed other algorithms, achieving high accuracy in both segmentation (with median Dice scores up to 0.81) and EOR classification (96% accuracy in comparisons), making it a valuable tool for clinical use.
Küttner's Tumor and Autoimmune Pancreatitis as Metachronous Manifestations of IgG4-Related Disease.
J Investig Med High Impact Case Rep
October 2024
St. Joseph's University Medical Center, Paterson, NJ, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a condition affecting multiple organs, characterized by painless swelling and inflammation, with common sites being the pancreas and salivary glands.
- Diagnosis involves various tests (serological, imaging, histopathological) and primary treatment is with glucocorticoids, which often yields good results.
- A case study highlights a geriatric male incorrectly suspected of pancreatic cancer, who was found to have autoimmune pancreatitis, a type of IgG4-RD, and responded well to steroid treatment.

Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea.
Objective: This study aimed to elucidate the clinical and laboratory differences between chronic sclerosing sialadenitis (CSS) and primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS), highlighting CSS as a distinct pathological entity within the spectrum of salivary gland pathology.
Methods: This retrospective, single-center study was conducted at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital between January 2000 and December 2022.
Predicting Regions of Local Recurrence in Glioblastomas Using Voxel-Based Radiomic Features of Multiparametric Postoperative MRI.
Cancers (Basel)
March 2023
Department of Physics and Technology, UiT The Arctic University of Norway, 9019 Tromsø, Norway.
The globally accepted surgical strategy in glioblastomas is removing the enhancing tumor. However, the peritumoral region harbors infiltration areas responsible for future tumor recurrence. This study aimed to evaluate a predictive model that identifies areas of future recurrence using a voxel-based radiomics analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data.

Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) has recently been well recognized and Kuttner tumor is known to be a chronic sclerosing sialadenitis, representing the focal manifestation of IgG4-RD, in the submandibular gland (SMG). This study is to evaluate the immunologic features of IgG4-related Kuttner tumor in the SMG. We retrospectively chose 13 patients who were confirmed as having Kuttner tumor by surgical biopsy between May 2012 and January 2019.
