Although mucoceles are very common, it is rare to find them in babies. A case is presented in which a large mucous extravasation cyst involving the ventral surface of tongue was treated in a 10-week-old baby.

Salivary extravasation cyst of the tongue

The vast field encompassed by the non-tumorous diseases of the salivary glands poses difficult problems for their diagnosis and therapy. In order to facilitate comprehension of the pathological processes and the therapeutical possibilities for their treatment, physiological and biochemical aspects of salivary gland function are presented in the introduction. There are also mentioned in detail most of the diagnostic methods clinically applied today and stress is laid on their respective diagnostic values. In contrast to the opinion of many authors, exploratory excision and puncture are shown to be very important diagnostic tools in salivary gland pathology. The specific application of these methods is often the only means for a reliable diagnosis. The classification of the diseases follows Seifert's (1971) proposal. The chronic diseases of the salivary glands are specifically mentioned with the chronic recurrent and the chronic myoepithelial sialoadenitis taking first place. The sialoses are presented in a larger chapter. An attempt was made to correlate clinical and experimental results, to establish working hypotheses concerning the development of sialoses, to suggest therapeutical possibilities and, last not least, to give an idea of the many clinical and patho-anatomical difficulties to be overcome for a satisfactory understanding of such pathological processes. Finally, various forms of salivary gland fistulas and their treatment are mentioned. The long list of references merely gives an approximation of the abundance of publications dealing with the problems of this field.

Oral mucoceles are common lesions that normally appear in the second decade of life. They are uncommon in neonates and infants. We present a case of a mucocele in a 10-month-old infant and review the literature regarding the epidemiology and treatment in this age group.
