$^{99m}Tc$-pertechnetate를 이용하여 두경부암 환자에서 이하선과 악하선의 방사선 조사 전후 및 추적 검사에서 방사선 조사로 인한 타액선의 기능 변화, 기능저하의 회복 여부, 이하선과 악하선의 방사선에 대한 감수성 차이, 그리고 구강건조증이 있던 환자와 없던 환자 사이의 기능 저하 차이를 객관적으로 평가하고자 하였다. 방사선 치료를 받는 두경부암 환자중 방사성 동위원소를 이용하여 이하선과 악하선 기능 검사를 시행한 19명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. $^{99m}Tc$-pertechnetate를 이용한 이하선과 악하선 기능 검사는 측정된 방사능치에 의한 섭취 곡선과 구연산으로 자극하였을 때의 평균 배출율에 의한 배출 곡선을 포함하였다. 이하선과 악하선의 섭취 곡선에서는 방사선 치료전보다 치료 1주후에서 증가하였고 치료 2주후와 3주후 그리고 치료 종료시에서는 치료 전과 비슷하거나 약간 증가하였으며 방사선 치료 후에서는 시간이 지날수록 점점 감소하였다. 이하선과 악하선의 배출 곡선에서는 방사선 치료 시작부터 종료시까지는 급격히 감소하였고 방사선 치료 후 1년까지의 검사에서는 배출율이 회복되지 않았다. 이하선과 악하선의 방사선에 대한 감수성 차이는 나타나지 않았고 구강건조증을 호소하는 환자와 호소하지 않는 환자 사이의 이하선과 악하선의 평균 배출율 차이는 발견되지 않았다. $^{99m}Tc$-pertechnetate를 이용한 이하선과 악하선기능 검사로 방사선 치료에 따른 이하선과 악하선의 기능 변화를 객관적으로 평가할 수 있고, 방사선 치료후 1년까지는 이하선과 악하선의 기능 회복이 없어 방사선 치료를 받은 두경부암 환자의 타액선 기능에 관한 예후추정에 도움이 되리라 사료된다.

In 1942, Stafne described 35 "bone cavities" at the angle of the mandible. They appeared as unilocular, well-circumscribed, round or elliptical radiolucencies located below the inferior dental canal and between the angle of the mandible and first molar tooth. Since 1942, these lesions have been frequently described under various terms: aberrant or ectopic salivary gland; static or latent or idiopathic defect, cavity or cyst; mandibular salivary gland inclusion; lingual mandibular cavity; and Stafne's cyst, defect or cavity. Usually they were asymptomatic, with a predilection for men between age 50 and 70 years, and almost unilateral. At surgical exploration, they appeared as concavities on the lingual cortex and contained salivary gland tissue, often in continuity with the submandibular gland. In 1957, Richard and Ziskind were the first to report the appearance of a Stafne's cyst in the premolar region. Contrary to posterior defects, the anterior defects are difficult to diagnose clinically because the mandibular canal is not present, and the unilocular radiolucency can be confused with other cysts (radicular, residual, odontogenic, lateral periodontal,etc). The purpose of the present report is to describe an unusual case of Stafne's cyst in the anterior region of the mandible in 58-years-old woman.

50 submandibular glands of rabbits were examined historadiologically after infusion with normal and over volumes of physiologic saline and 5 radiographic contrast media. The results were as follows: 1. All water soluble contrast media showed similar radiographic contrasts and absorbed about 5 minutes after infusion except Telebrix 30 which took 30 minutes in both normal and overfilled glands. 2. Lipid soluble medium, Lipiodol UF had excellent radiographic contrast and could be seen on the radiograms even after 24 hours after infusion. 3. Salivary glands infused with physiologic saline didn't show any histologic changes except slight duct dilation right after infusion. 4. Telebrix 30 caused mild to moderate duct dilation and inflammation at immediate & 24 hours after infusion which was more severe in overfilled glands. At 7 days after infusion, there were mild to moderate fibrosis of the gland and areas of necrosis was seen in overfilled glands. 5. Hypaque 60% showed similar histologic reactions to Telebrix 30 except more severe tissue destruction at 7 days after infusion. 6. Urografin 60% showed mildest histologic changes among the media used in the study. 7. Biliscopin had mild duct dilation which returned to normal after 7 days but there were moderate inflammation and tissue necrosis at that time. 8. Lipiodol UF showed severe duct dilation with numerous vacuoles and there were tissue fibrosis at 7 days after infusion but no tissue necrosis was seen.

Primary malignancies of hard palate are rare, espicially adenocarcinoma of minor salivary gland in hard palate. The clinical stage of the tumor and its histologic grade at the time of treatment were significant predictors of survival. A 33-year-old woman was diagnosed with stage II, polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma of the hard palate and treated with surgery. We thougt that she would have excellent prognosis. After that, there was no definite evidence of recurrence during 3 months. Since then, the patient herself decided to discontunue follow-up. 9 years after that she came to the hospital due to both submandibular mass without any sign of local recurrence. CT scan and biopsy of the mass revealed multiple cervical metastatic adenocarcinoma without distant metastasis and the histologic findings were similar to that of the primary hard palate adenocarcinoma. So, we present this case with the review of literature.

Clusterin is a highly glycosylated protein composed of two disulfide linked subunits. Although its biolobical action is not clearly defined, clusterin seems to be involved not only in remodeling of damaged tissue, but also in production of halitosis, the present study was designated to elucidate the expression of clusterin in the salivary gland of diabetic rats. For this study, 24 Sprague-Dawley rats were used for the experiment and divided into 2groups: control and experimental. The experimental group was composed of 18 rats and the control goup was 6 rats. After nduction of diabetes by STZ injection, the animals were sacrificed at 1,3,5,7,10,14 days. The parotid and submamndibular glands were observed histologically and the transcriptional expression of clusterin in the glands by Northern blot. The finding were as follows : 1. In experimental group, the salivary glands were observed at day 3 and then a seven destructive pattern was found in the glands at day 5. Howere, regeneration of gland tissue occured at day 14. 2. In experimental goup, destructive change was examined in the septal connective tissue after 7 days, and gradually more serious. 3. In experimental group, clusterin was expressed in the submandibular glands after 5 days, but in parotid glands to a lesser extent after 10 days. These results suggest that clusterin seems to be closely associated with histologic changes in the mucous glands rather serous glands.

The pain, swelling of salivary glands and dry mouth are not infrequent complication of the high dose radioiodine treatment in the patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. The purpose of this study was, by the dynamic salivary scintigraphy, to observe the change of the salivary function after the high dose $(150\sim200mci)$ radioiodine treatment. From May 1987 to April 1988, the dynamic salivary scintigraphy with 5mci of $^{99m}Tc-pertechnetate$ and gamma camera was performed before and 7 days after the radiolodine treatment in 7 patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. Just after the dynamic scintigraphy, the stimulation test with vitamin C solution of pH3.0 and poststirnulation scintigraphy were done, and the radioactivity uptake index, excretion fraction and salivary clearance after the stimulation were calculated for each gland. There was positive correlation between the radioactivity uptake index and excretion fraction after the stimulation. The salivary clearance after the stimulation was $18.96{\pm}8.95ml/min$ in the pretreatment state, and $14.37{\pm}7.7ml/min$ after the radioioine treatment. After the radioiodine treatment, the radioactivity uptake index, excretion fraction and salivary clearance after the stimulation were significantly reduced in the parotid glands, but only the excretion fraction was reduced in the submandibular glands. The more the pretreatment salivary clearance after the stimulation was, the % change after the treatment was smaller. Further studies on the relation between the radiation dose in the salivary glands and the change of their function, and the long-term observation for the recovery of function are expected.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess and compare the diagnostic performance of panoramic and occlusal radiographs in detecting submandibular sialoliths. Materials and Methods: A total of 40 patients (20 cases and 20 controls) were included in this retrospective study. Cases were defined as subjects with a submandibular sialolith confirmed by computed tomography (CT), whereas controls did not have any submandibular calcifications. Three observers with different expertise levels assessed panoramic and occlusal radiographs of all subjects for the presence of sialoliths. Intraobserver and interobserver agreement were assessed using the kappa test. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive and negative predictive values, and the diagnostic odds ratio of panoramic and occlusal radiographs in screening for submandibular sialoliths were calculated for each observer. Results: The sensitivity and specificity values for occlusal and panoramic radiographs all ranged from 80% to 100%. The lowest values of sensitivity and specificity observed among the observers were 82.6% and 80%, respectively (P=0.001). Intraobserver and interobserver agreement were higher for occlusal radiographs than for panoramic radiographs, although panoramic radiographs demonstrated a higher overall accuracy. Conclusion: Both panoramic and occlusal radiographic techniques displayed satisfactory diagnostic performance and should be considered before using a CT scan to detect submandibular sialoliths.
