Ranula is a cystic swelling of the floor of the mouth, which is usually unilateral and relatively uncommon. The cyst arises from the sublingual salivary gland. We reviewed 14 patients operated in the period 1976-April 1998. There was no recurrence after marsupialization and after extirpation of the sublingual gland. Fourteen percent of the patients had recurrence after extirpation of the cyst. At the follow-up time (average 8.1 years) 18.2% had complications. We suggest that marsupialization/extirpation of the cyst should be primary treatment. In case of recurrence the sublingual gland should be extirpated.
舌下囊肿是口腔底部的囊性肿胀，通常为单侧，相对少见。囊肿起源于舌下腺。我们回顾了1976年至1998年4月期间接受手术的14例患者。袋形缝合术和舌下腺摘除术后均无复发。囊肿摘除术后14%的患者复发。在随访期（平均8.1年），18.2%的患者出现并发症。我们建议，囊肿的袋形缝合术/摘除术应作为主要治疗方法。如果复发，应摘除舌下腺。
