초록
A plunging ranula is a pseudocyst in the neck that originates from the sublingual gland in theprocess of mucus extravasation and herniation. It has been widely suggested that the cause of aplunging ranula is due to a congenital predisposition involving the dehiscence of the mylohyoidmuscle, racial predisposition and previous oral trauma. Even though unilateral plunging ranulais rare, and bilateral plunging ranulas are even more rare. We recently experienced a case of bi-lateral plunging ranula in a 27-year-old male. He presented with a right-sided submandibularswelling and was diagnosed with a plunging ranula and right ranula excision and sublingualgland excision was performed. He visited the outpatient department with contralateral subman-dibular swelling after 18 months of operation. Under the diagnosis of left plunging ranula, heunderwent surgery in the same way as before. We suggest that all patients with a unilateralplunging ranula, although rare, should be considered for the possibility of developing contralat-eral diseases.
Abstract
A plunging ranula is a pseudocyst in the neck that originates from the sublingual gland in theprocess of mucus extravasation and herniation. It has been widely suggested that the cause of aplunging ranula is due to a congenital predisposition involving the dehiscence of the mylohyoidmuscle, racial predisposition and previous oral trauma. Even though unilateral plunging ranulais rare, and bilateral plunging ranulas are even more rare. We recently experienced a case of bi-lateral plunging ranula in a 27-year-old male. He presented with a right-sided submandibularswelling and was diagnosed with a plunging ranula and right ranula excision and sublingualgland excision was performed. He visited the outpatient department with contralateral subman-dibular swelling after 18 months of operation. Under the diagnosis of left plunging ranula, heunderwent surgery in the same way as before. We suggest that all patients with a unilateralplunging ranula, although rare, should be considered for the possibility of developing contralat-eral diseases.
