AB  - Numerous  infiltrative  disorders  may  cause  unilateral  or  bilateral  parotid  gland  enlargement.  Sjögren  syndrome  and  sarcoidosis  are  examples  of  lymphoepithelial  and  granulomatous  diseases  that  may  affect  the  salivary  glands.  Metabolic  disorders,  including  alcoholism,  diabetes  mellitus,  and  vitamin  deficiencies,  may  also  cause  diffuse  enlargement.  Several  drugs  have  been  associated  with  parotid  enlargement,  including  thioureas,  iodine,  and  drugs  with  cholinergic  effects  (eg,  phenothiazines),  which  stimulate  salivary  flow  and  cause  more  viscous  saliva.
