Abstract
Histological changes of the parotid and submandibular glands were investigated with newborns and infants affected by cytomegalic inclusion disease. The submandibular gland was found occasionally reddish in color on cut surface. Microscopically, dilatation of the intralobular capillaries was observed, both in the parotid and submandibular glands, especially around the intralobular ducts with cytomegalic inclusion cells. We consider that these changes must be the expression of hyperemia caused by infection of the cytomegalovirus.
