 # Ball in hand appearance is seen in:
A. Sialadenosis
B. Benign tumor of salivary gland
C. Sialadenitis
D. Sjogren’s syndrome



The correct answer is B. Benign tumor of salivary gland.

Benign tumors may present as low-intensity (dark) or high-intensity (light) tissue signals on MRI, although the relative intensity of the signal may indicate the presence of lipid, vascular, or fibrous
tissues. Sialography may suggest a space-occupying mass when the ducts are compressed or smoothly displaced around the lesion (the “ball-in-hand” appearance).
