title: Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis or Küttner's tumor associated with a giant sialolith: a case report.
abstract: Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis (Küttner's tumor [KT]) is a chronic inflammatory salivary gland disease primarily affecting the submandibular gland. Sialolithiasis is considered the most common etiologic factor for KT. We report a case of KT associated with a giant sialolith of the submandibular gland and a secondary smaller sialolith in the associated submandibular duct.
