[Abnormalities of the salivary glands from the clinical viewpoint].
Malformations of the salivary glands may be an occult cause of sialadenitis, fistulae, tumours, or xerostomia. Diseases of the salivary glands occurring at atypical sites may result from several forms of dystopia of the glands, or from the presence of accessory or aberrant salivary glands, causing considerable problems in differential diagnosis and therapy.
