    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Endocrinology
    • Gastroenterology
    • Psychiatry

    Background:

    • Sialadenosis, characterized by non-inflammatory enlargement of salivary glands, is rarely diagnosed in pediatric patients.
    • Anorexia nervosa, an eating disorder, is also uncommon in young males.

    Observation:

    • A boy presented with asymptomatic bilateral submandibular gland enlargement.
    • Biopsy findings were indicative of sialadenosis.
    • Child psychiatry confirmed the underlying diagnosis of anorexia nervosa.

    Findings:

    • The case demonstrates a rare co-occurrence of sialadenosis and anorexia nervosa in a male adolescent.
    • Histopathological examination confirmed sialadenosis of the submandibular glands.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering rare conditions in pediatric diagnostics.
    • Successful management and recovery during puberty suggest potential hormonal influences or developmental factors.
    • Further research into the link between eating disorders and salivary gland pathology in boys is warranted.
