Ductal papillomas are rare benign lesions of the salivary glands with two distinctive types, intraductal and inverted. The rarest anatomical location where intraductal papillomas occur is the major salivary glands. In the present study, we report an intraductal papilloma of the left sublingual gland with the relevant clinical, imaging, and histopathological findings and postoperative follow-up. To our knowledge, this is the fourth case of an intraductal papilloma of a sublingual gland to be reported in the international literature. We present this rare case because of its clinical and radiological imitation of a ranula.

A dermoid cyst is a rare congenital midline neck mass with usually develops in the submental region. It is most often seen in young adults and can become rather large than almost no symptoms. As it increases in size, dysphasia, or dyspnea can develop. The differential diagnosis of the midline lesion includes ranula, thymglossal duct cyst, cystic hygroma, and cystic lymphangioma. The treatment of choice is complete surgical removal. With a review of the literature, we report two cases of a huge dermoid cyst inducing dyspnea.

Epidermal cyst in the floor of mouth is relatively rare disease. Patients usually present soft and non-tender mass at the midline of mouth floor. Careful history taking and imaging study are needed for the diagnosis and surgical excision is the choice of treatment. We report a case of huge epidermal cyst located in the floor of mouth mimicking plunging ranula, which was successfully removed by transoral surgical excision without any complication. It was diagnosed as an epidermal cyst by pathologic examination.

An oral foregut cyst is a rare congenital choristoma lined by the respiratory and/or gastrointestinal epithelium. The exact etiology has not been fully identified, but it is thought to arise from misplaced primitive foregut. This lesion develops asymptomatically but sometimes causes difficulty in swallowing and pronunciation depending on its size. Thus, the first choice of treatment is surgical excision. Surgeons associated with head and neck pathology should include the oral foregut cyst in the differential diagnosis for ranula, dermoid cyst, thyroglossal duct cyst and lymphangioma in cases of pediatric head and neck lesions.

Background and Objectives: In most cases of benign neck cysts, surgical excision has been considered as treatment of choice. However, sometimes complete excision is very difficult, and recurrences has been occured due to insufficient surgery frequently. In this point of view, non-surgical treatment has been attempted with sclerosing agents such as picibanil(OK-432). In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of picibanil sclerotherapy for benign neck cysts. Materials and methods: We retrospectively reviewed 53 patients(27 males, 26 females) who had undergone sclerotherapy with picibanil for benign neck cysts such as ranula, lymphangioma, thyroglossal duct cyst and branchial cyst. Information was gathered with respected to age, sex, number of injections, side effect and outcome of treatment. All patients were treated with intralesional aspiration of cystic contents and injection of picibanil, and followed on neck ultrasonography or neck CT. Results: 53 patients received sonoguided sclerotherapy using picibanil(OK-432). 31 patients(41.3%) showed total shrinkage, near total shrinkage(more than 90% of volume) in 7 patients(9.3%), marked shrinkage(more than 70%) in 5 patients(6.6%) and partial shrinkage(less than 70%) in 17 patients. 15 patients(20%) reaveled no response and 8 patients showed recurrences with repeated sclerotherapy. The side effects of therapy were observed by symptoms such as fever, localized pain and odynophagia. However, these complications disappeared after several days in all cases. Conclusions: We recognized that picibanil(OK-432) sclerotherapy for benign neck cyst is a safe and effective procedures as a primary treatment before considering surgery.

점액낭종은 타액선의 분비도관이 외상, 타석, 반흔조직등에 의해 폐쇄되거나 파열되어 점액이 조직내로 유출 및 저류되어 발생하는 가성의 낭종으로, 이 중 하마종은 구강저에서 발생하는 점액낭종에 사용하는 용어이다. 염증에 이환되지 않았다면 대부분이 무통의 양상을 나타내며 심부에 위치할수록 정상색조를 띄게된다. 점액낭종의 치료는 주로 재발을 방지하기 위하여 인접소타액선을 포함한 완전절제를 시행하며, 병소의 크기가 큰 경우 부분절제를 시행하기도 한다. 하마종의 치료는 조대술과 완전절제술이 있으며, 조대술은 찾은 재발을 일으키는 단점이 있으나 치료가 성공적으로 시행되었을 경우, 환자에게 타액선이 제거되는 불편감을 덜 할 수 있다. 본 증례에서는 하순과 구강저에 발생한 점액낭종과 하마종을 완전절제술과 조대술로 치료하고 그 경과를 관찰한 바 술 후 재발이 관찰되지 않았고, 정상기능을 회복하였다 향후 치료부위의 재발여부에 대한 계속적인 관찰이 필요하리라 생각되며, 하마종의 치료시 조대술이 적절히 이용되었을 때 환아의 불필요한 타액선 절제를 피할 수 있다고 사료된다. 또한 점액낭종의 치료시, 병력과 임상적 특징을 바탕으로 한 정확한 감별진단과 적절한 치료법의 선택이 중요하다는 결론을 얻었다.
