Quiz #6 Salivary Gland Diseases And Cysts Of The Jaw And Neck Flashcards
It is a rare condition wherein there is infection of the salivary glands. It affects neonates as a result of transplacental infection.
Cytomegaloviral Sialadenitis
These are infections of the salivary glands due to overgrowth of microorganisms secondary to decrease salivary flow.
Bacterial Sialadenitis
Also known as Endemic Parotitis, is an acute viral sialadenitis primarily affecting the parotid glands.
Mumps
These are prime examples of reactive conditions resulting to salivary gland diseases.

It is a disease involving abnormal collections of inflammatory cells that forms lumps known as granulomata.
Sarcoidosis
Also known as a mixed tumor. Most common site is the palate and the ear.
Pleomorphic Adenoma
Etiology is unknown and it appears as a movable, round or oval, normal colored sub-mucosal mass measuring less than 3 cm in diameter.
Basal Cell Adenoma
The cause is not well understood, although certain chromosomal alterations and gene mutations have been identified.
Myoepithelioma
It is the most common type of salivary gland tumor.
Sebaceous Adenoma
All are examples of benign salivary gland tumors EXCEPT.
Pleomorphic Adenoma

It is the prime example of an Odontogenic Cyst.
Periapical cyst
Lateral periodontal cyst
Dentigerous cyst
Eruption cyst
all of the above
All
Usually associated with impacted 3rd molars and canines. It is second most common odontogenic cysts.
Dentigerous cyst
This is the most common type of jaw cysts, they are usually asymptomatic and are preceded by a granulomatus formation.
Periapical cyst
They pathogenically linked to the gingival cyst of the adult. Most common sites are the mandibular premolar, cupid regions and occasionally the incisor area.
Lateral Periodontal Cyst
Characterized by a dome shaped raised swelling in the mucosa of the alveolar ridge. Associated with an emerging crown of a dentition.
Eruption cyst
Traditionally described as a fissural cyst between the maxillary lateral incisor and the canine teeth.
Globulomaxillary cyst
It is a type of cyst that is located within the palatal soft tissues. A relatively symmetric swelling in the anterior region of the palatal midline.
Nasopalatine duct cyst
These are examples of Odontogenic cysts.
Globumaxillary cyst
Nasolabial cyst
Median Mandibular cyst
Nasopalatine duct cyst
all of the above
none of the above
None
These are cysts of the soft tissues of the upper lip. Treatment of choice is excision.
Nasolabial cyst
This type of cyst occurs predominantly on the central portion of the lower jaw. Clinically asymptomatic and seldom produce expansion of the cortical plates of the bone.
Median Mandibular cyst
