Neonatal cystic choristoma in submandibular salivary gland simulating cystic hygroma. 1979

T T Tang, and M Glicklich, and K A Siegesmund, and H W Oechler, and S R McCreadie

A congenital cystic malformation occurred in the submandibular salivary gland of a neonate. The embryogenesis and differential diagnosis are discussed. Since it seems to be a product of endodermal heterotopic differentiation or entrapment of foregut epithelial rests in the submandibular gland, it is classified as a cystic choristoma.
