A case of a large amount of calcification in the right submandibular and cervical lymph nodes is presented. A 32-year-old man was referred to our department by his dentist for evaluation of multiple calcifications in the right submandibular and cervical regions. The right side of the panoramic radiograph demonstrated multiple well-circumscribed, irregular radiopaque masses consistent with calcifications of the anterior auricular, parotid, upper superficial and deep cervical, and submandibular lymph nodes.<BR>Physical examination revealed multiple, well-circumscribed, firm, movable, and nontender masses in the preauricular, retromandibular, and submandibular regions. Pathological diagnosis was calcification of the lymph nodes. A possible mode of calcification in the lymph nodes was discussed.
