Sialolithiasis is one of the most common salivary gland diseases. The main symptom is acute swelling of a major salivary gland after food intake, whereby the submandibular gland is significantly more frequently affected compared to the parotid gland. In the course of the disease, recurrent sialadenitis occurs in many cases. In addition to submandibulectomy, there is currently not only the possibility of improved diagnostics but also of gland-preserving therapy, for example by means of miniature endoscopy (sialendoscopy).

Objectives: Drug-loaded mucoadhesive silk fibroin (SF) microneedle patch can overcome the limitations of low bioavailability and significant pain associated with traditional treatment methods, such as topical application or injection of triamcinolone for oral submucous fibrosis (OSF). However, these systems release the drug too quickly, failing to meet the clinical requirements. This study aims to construct a mucoadhesive SF microneedle patch pre-assembled with silk fibroin nanospheres (SFN) and explore its ability to sustain the release of triamcinolone in the treatment of OSF.

Cancers of the oral cavity, lip, salivary gland, and oropharynx cause substantial global disease burden. While tobacco-use and alcohol use are highly associated with oral cancers, the rising incidence of disease in patients who do not use tobacco or alcohol points to additional carcinogenic risk factors. Chronic inflammation, disruption of the oral microbiome, and dysbiosis are becoming more widely implicated in the pathogenesis of oral cancer.

Background: A novel anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) GQ1001 was assessed in patients with previously treated HER2 positive advanced solid tumors in a global multi-center phase Ia dose escalation trial.
Methods: In this phase Ia trial, a modified 3 + 3 study design was adopted during dose escalation phase. Eligible patients were enrolled, and GQ1001 monotherapy was administered intravenously every 3 weeks.
Survival benefit of cancer-directed surgery and the role of adjuvant therapy in malignant major salivary gland cancers: a propensity score matched retrospective analysis.

Background: The primary objective of this study was to assess the benefit of cancer-directed surgery (CDS) on both overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) of patients with malignant major salivary gland cancers (MMSGCs). The secondary objective was to explore the benefits of adjuvant therapy on the survival outcomes of these patients.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with MMSGC were extracted from the SEER database and subsequently categorized into two cohorts: CDS and non-CDS.

Median mandibular cyst is defined as an odontogenic cyst in a rare midline location. In spite of this definition, there have been two reports of a peculiar lesion, so-called "ciliated" median mandibular cyst associated with vital teeth, the origin of which cannot be explained in terms of odontogenic epithelium multipotentiality. We describe a thorough profile of an additional example.
