A Giant Ranula: The Rima Oris Lantern – A Catch-All Approach

 

Abstract

Oral ranula is a retention cyst which arises from the sublingual salivary gland in the floor of the mouth due to ductal obstruction and fluid retention. Various surgical procedures have been quoted in the literature ranging from simple aspiration to complete or partial excision of the ranula. This paper highlights a case report of a huge impending plunging ranula in the floor of the mouth which has been successfully excised completely.

Keywords: Ranula; Marsupialisation; Pseudo-cyst
