摘 要:BACKGROUND Salivary duct carcinoma(SDC)is a rare,extremely aggressive malignancy that arises in the submandibular *** can metastasize locally early and therefore is an important differential diagnosis of metastatic disease in cervical lymph nodes or specific lymphadenitis such as tuberculous cervical *** SUMMARY We report a case of SDC in the submandibular gland that presented diagnostic *** lesion was coincidentally discovered through examination of the radiolucent area of the *** failed to confirm the possibility of specific inflammation,leading us to execute an open biopsy to verify the *** surgical specimen showed that the submandibular gland was primarily replaced with a calcified *** histological analysis and confirmation,we performed surgical resection,radiotherapy,and various *** Radiographic imaging characteristics of lymph node metastases of salivary gland cancer,especially of SDC,may resemble other cervical lymphadenitis;calcification at the submandibular gland is the landmark of SDC occurring at the submandibular gland.
