ABSTRACT Mucocele are common salivary gland disorder which can be present in the oral cavity, appendix, gall bladder, paranasal sinuses or lacrimal sac. Common location for these lesions in oral cavity is lower lip however it also presents on other locations like tongue, buccal mucosa, soft palate, retromolar pad and lower labial mucosa. Trauma and lip biting habits are the main cause for these types of lesions. These are painless lesions which can be diagnosed clinically. In this review, a method used for searching data includes various internet sources and relevant electronic journals from the Pub Med and Medline. Keywords: Mucocels, Lower lip, Retention cyst. INTRODUCTION Mucocele is defined as a mucus filled cyst that can Types appear in the oral cavity, appendix, gall bladder, paranasal sinuses or lacrimal sac (Baurmash, 2003; Clinically there are two types, extravasation and retention Ozturk et al., 2005).

  • Phenobarbital-Responsive Bilateral Zygomatic Sialadenitis Following an Enterotomy in a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
    Research Journal for Veterinary Practitioners Case Report Phenobarbital-Responsive Bilateral Zygomatic Sialadenitis following an Enterotomy in a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel PAOUL S MARTINEZ, RENEE CARTER, LORRIE GASCHEN, KIRK RYAN Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA. Abstract | A 6 year old male castrated Cavalier King Charles Spaniel presented to the Louisiana State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital for a three day history of bilateral acute trismus, exophthalmos, and blindness. These signs developed after an exploratory laparotomy and gastrointestinal foreign body removal was performed. On pre- sentation, the ophthalmic examination revealed bilateral decreased retropulsion, absent bilateral direct and consensual pupillary light responses, bilateral blindness, and a superficial ulcer in right eye. Ocular ultrasound and computed to- mography of the skull were performed and identified a bilateral retrobulbar mass effect originating from the zygomatic salivary glands. Ultrasound guided fine needle aspirate cytology revealed neutrophilic inflammation. Fungal testing and bacterial cultures were performed which were negative for identification of an infectious organism. The patient was placed on a 5-day course of antibiotic therapy and the response was poor. Phenobarbital was added to the treatment regimen. Two days following phenobarbital administration, the exophthalmos and trismus began to resolve. Following phenobarbital therapy, ocular position normalized, trismus completely resolved, and patient returned to normal behav- ior although blindness remained in both eyes. No other neurologic condition occurred. This paper highlights the early use of phenobarbital for the rapid resolution of zygomatic sialadenitis.

Background: The term LASER refers to Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Recent advances in both soft tissue and hard tissue laser technology have brought a revolution in the field of dentistry. The applications of lasers play a vital role in modern surgical procedures. Lasers use high energy photons at controlled wavelengths to heat or ablate biological tissue thereby making the procedures painless. Lasers are important in ablative, reconstructive and aesthetic surgical procedures. Objective:There are many variations in the types of lasers used in oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures starting from a regular tooth extraction to removal of malignant tumours. With the advent of newer technologies, it has become imperative for dentists to become familiar with these developing modern techniques.

A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who visited the Department of Oral Medicine from March 2019 to March 2020.Clinically diagnosed cases of salivary gland diseases which included salivary gland neoplasms, xerostomia, necrotizing sialometaplasia, mucocele, ranula, sjogren’s syndrome, sialodochitis, sialadenitis were included in the study.The details of each case were reviewed from an electronic database.From the study we found that 17 patients were diagnosed with salivary gland disease.The most commonly observed salivary gland disease was mucocele of the lip with a frequency of 41.17% in the study population followed by xerostomia (17.65%).Salivary gland disease can occur due to variable causes and might significantly affect the quality of life and daily functioning.Only with a thorough knowledge of the subject it is possible to detect the diseases of the salivary gland in their early stage and manage them more efficiently.

A mucocele is a swelling in mouth caused by a blocked salivary gland. Mucoceles are painless but can be bothersome for patients to eating and speaking. Most mucoceles are visually identified. Only a few of mucoceles goes away without any special treatment, but most of mucoceles are removed by surgi- cal process. The most common location of the extravasation mucocele is the lower lip, while retention mucoceles can be found at any other site. Mucoceles Can affect the general population, but most commonly young patients. Trauma is the main etiologic factor involved in the development of mucoceles in children. The proper treatment can remove mucoceles without side effects. It is essential for a dentist to visually recognize oral lesions such as mucocele and for the proper treatment.

Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences, Nitte University, Mangalore, Karnataka 2 Professor and Head, Department of Oral Pathology & Microbiology, A. B. Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences, Nitte University, Mangalore, Karnataka Abstract The mucous escape reaction or Mucocele as it is called is a salivary gland lesion of traumatic origin which is formed when the main duct of a minor salivary gland is torn with subsequent extravasation of the mucus into the fibrous connective tissue. In due course a cyst like cavity is produced which is filled with mucin. This lesion is described by number of names including mucus retention phenomena or mucus retention cyst, and Ranula. Common site of occurrence of Mucocele is said to be lower lip, followed by the floor of mouth and buccal mucosa. The treatment of mucocele must be planned in such a way , taking into consideration the various clinical parameters and any oral habits that are probable as these lesions have a propensity of recurrence. This paper gives an insight into the phenomenon, clinical characteristics along with histopathology features, and clinical management of mucocele.

Sialocele with calculi was evaluated based on physical exam, radiographs, ultrasonography, and computed tomography. Salivary gland resection was performed. Histopathological examination confirmed sialoadenitis concurred with sialocele. Key words : Sialocele, radiograph, ultrasonography, sialolithiasis, sialoadenitis. Introduction Hyperechoic materials accompanying acoustic shadow also were detected on the dependent portion of cavitary lesion Sialocele, or salivary mucocele is an accumulation of saliva (Fig 2-B). The hyperechoic objects were suspected as intrag- in subcutaneous tissue due to tear in a salivary gland or duct landular sialoliths, which were shown on the radiographs. No and often occurs in dogs (7). Sialolithiasis is defined as the evidence of vascularization was detected. FNA was per- formation of calcified secretions in a salivary gland or duct, formed guided by ultrasound. Aspirated samples of the and is infrequent as compared with salivary mucocele (23). swelling lesion showed viscous, lucent, and hazy contents.
