Abstract

Dermoidcyst are usually seen as a slow growing benign painless mass. The treatment of choice for dermoid cysts is surgical enucleation. The most common location in the head and neck region is the external third of the eyebrow. Sublingual location is very rare. They are benign lesions arising from entrapment of epithelial rests during embryogenesis. Due to its malignant potential, understanding about this lesion is very essential. With the help of radiological investigation like MRI the precise location, extension and relationship of the cyst with the surrounding structures can be identified. Here we represent a case of sublingual swelling in a twenty year old female patient who was treated by surgically excision under general anesthesia. To conclude with proper radiological investigation dermoid cyst in the floor of the mouth can be managed by surgical excision.
巨大舌下皮样瘤的治疗1例
皮样囊肿通常被视为生长缓慢的良性无痛肿块。皮样囊肿的治疗选择是手术摘除。在头颈部最常见的位置是眉毛的外部三分之一。舌下定位非常罕见。它们是由胚胎发生期间上皮细胞被困引起的良性病变。由于其潜在的恶性,了解这种病变是非常必要的。在MRI等影像学检查的帮助下,可以确定囊肿的精确位置、范围以及与周围结构的关系。我们在此报告一位二十岁的女性病患,因舌下肿大而在全身麻醉下接受手术切除。结论:在适当的影像学检查下,口腔底皮样囊肿可以通过手术切除来治疗。
