Association of serum electrolytes and smoking with salivary gland stone formation

Abstract: To further define potential factors that may contribute to stone formation in salivary glands (sialolithiasis), a retrospective chart review was performed of patients diagnosed with sialolithiasis between March 1, 1998 and February 29, 2012. Information on salivary gland stone number, location, and size, medical history, medications, and serum electrolyte levels were collected. Associations between electrolyte levels and stone characteristics (such as stone number and size) were examined. Fifty-nine patients w… Show more

“…Similar to our findings, a history of smoking has been reported as a predisposing factor for sialolithiasis in the general population (adjusted OR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.02-1.44, P = 0.028) [22]. The stone size has been reported to be much larger in current smokers than in ex-smokers (12.4 mm vs. 7.5 mm, P = 0.03) [13].…”

“…Smoking and alcohol consumption were the most commonly performed social habits in patients with sialolithiasis. The association of sialolithiasis with smoking has been reported in several previous studies [1,9,10,12,13]. However, we could not find any study evaluating the correlation between alcohol consumption and sialolithiasis.…”

The association between sialolithiasis and smoking has been reported in several previous studies [1,10,11,13,14]. However, evidence of an association between alcohol consumption and sialolithiasis is lacking even though alcohol drinking is one of the most common causes of oral cavity and deep neck infection [15,16].…”
