Abstract

Objective: To characterize the structure of the parotid gland of the miniature pigs (minipig). Methods: Sialographic, anatomical, histological and ultrastructural studies of the parotid gland were performed on 11 minipigs. Results: Sialograms showed a long main duct and a triangular shaped gland. All branching ducts extended from the inferior-posterior margin of the main duct. No accessory glands were found. Typical serous acini were found microscopically and histochemically. Conclusion: This study provides basic structural information on the parotid gland of the minipig.
