ABSTRACT
The congenital absence of major salivary glands is an extremely rare disorder. The cause of congenital absence of the salivary glands has not been determined, but it may be associated with ectodermal defects of the first and second branchial arches. The etiopathogenesis of isolated absence of a major salivary gland without other developmental anomalies is still unclear. Unilateral aplasia of the submanibular gland with sialolithiasis of contralateral wharton’s duct has not been reported previously. The authors report with relative literature one case of Unilateral aplasia of the submanibular gland with sialolithiasis of contralateral Wharton’s duct. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2010;21:279-282)
