Title: [Salivary calcinosis and the immunologic context]. Author: Laudenbach P, Godeau P, Wechsler B, Tran CP. Journal: Rev Stomatol Chir Maxillofac; 1977; 78(3):199-206. PubMed ID: 268011.

This suggestion is based on clinical and pathological grounds. An analysis of 11 cases of salivary calcinosis encountered in the last eight years points to clinical analogies between this condition and Gougerot-Sjögren's disease as well as to the fairly frequent involvement of the immune system in the calcinoses.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
