Abstract
ABSTRACTBackground: Microscopic examination of parotid gland reveals hypertrophy of the aciner cells sometimes two tothree times greater than normal size of PG, in cases associated with longstanding diabetes. This study was designedto determine the effects of duration, fasting plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin on parotid glandenlargement among poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus.Subjects, Materials, and Method: This study was conducted on 36 parotid glands of 18 with type 2 DM , at age range( 40-60) years, all of them were selected from subjects attending (Endocrine clinic for diabetic patients) in BaghdadTeaching Hospital. , pg was measured with ultrasonography in both longitudinal and horizontal plane.Results: the rate of enlargement of pg was higher with higher duration period of DM study sample , also the rate ofenlargement of pg was higher with higher value of HbA1c % and finally the rate of enlargement of pg was higherwith higher fasting serum glucose level among DM study group.Conclusion: This result show that the duration is the most effective factor associated with parotid gland enlargementamong poorly controlled type 2 DM.Key words: Diabetes mellitus, duration, fasting plasma glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin.
