Mucoceles are common cystic lesions of the oral mucosa. Extravasation mucoceles are mainly found in the lower lip of young patients, whereas retention mucoceles are usually located in the cheek or palate of older patients. The disparate site and age incidences of extravasation and retention mucoceles suggest that these two types are not related and have different pathogenesis. Treatment modalities for mucoceles are reviewed, with special attention to the cryosurgical technique for the treatment of oral ranulas.
黏液囊肿是口腔黏膜常见的囊性病变。外渗性黏液囊肿主要见于年轻患者的下唇，而潴留性黏液囊肿通常位于老年患者的颊部或腭部。外渗性和潴留性黏液囊肿在发病部位和年龄上的差异表明这两种类型并无关联且发病机制不同。本文对外渗性黏液囊肿的治疗方式进行了综述，特别关注了冷冻手术治疗口腔舌下囊肿的技术。
