Zusammenfassung

Purpose: Congenital agenesis of the submandibular gland is uncommon. We report dynamic sonography and computed tomography findings of the unilateral submandibular gland agenesis associated with herniated hypertrophic sublingual gland tissue through the mylohyoid gap. To the best of our knowledge, this may be the first reported case describing dynamic sonography findings of this entity. Material and methods: Neck sonography was performed using a multihertz linear probe operating at 5 to 10 MHz by an EUB-7000 ultrasound system. A CT scan using 3-mm slices was performed with a spiral CT unit. Results: On the B-mode…
