INTRODUCTION Deep neck infections are a life threatening condition but can be treated, the infections affects the deep cervical space and is characterized by rapid progression. These infections remains as a serious health problem with significant morbidity and potential mortality. These infections most frequently has its origin from the local extension of infections from tonsils, parotid glands, cervical lymph nodes, and odontogenic structures. Classically it presents with symptoms related to local pressure effects on the respiratory, nervous, or gastrointestinal (GI) tract (particularly neck mass/swelling/induration, dysphagia, dysphonia, and trismus). The specific presenting symptoms will be related to the deep neck space involved (parapharyngeal, retropharyngeal, prevertebral, submental, masticator, etc).1,2,3,4,5 ETIOLOGY Deep neck space infections are polymicrobial, with their source of origin from the normal flora of the oral cavity and upper respiratory tract. The most common deep neck infections among adults arise from dental and periodontal structures, with the second most common source being from the tonsils.

Approach OPEN ACCESS Keywords Abhishek Bhardwaj*, Sudhagar Eswaran, and Hari Shankar • Ranula Niranjan • Submandibular gland Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Vardhmann Mahavir Medical College and • Pharynx Safdarjung Hospital, India • Skull Base • Neck Abstract Plunging ranula extending into parapharyngeal space till the skull base with associated absence of submandibular gland is a rare finding. Transcervical approach for its excision is a challenging procedure in view of limited exposure and presence of important neurovascular structures in the field. We present a clinical case of a left sided plunging ranula extending into the parapharyngeal space till skull base in a 19 year old male who presented to a tertiary care hospital with complaints of slowly increasing swelling in neck and oral cavity for duration of six months. Ultrasound neck revealed well defined heterogeneously hypoechoic collection in left submandibular region. Contrast enhanced computed tomography revealed a non-enhancing, cystic mass involving left submandibular space extending into left parapharyngeal space till skull base and absent left submandibular gland. Ranula measuring 10cm*6cm was excised in to by tanscervical approach without damage to any neurovascular structure. Histopathology was consistent with low ranula. Patient is in follow up for past six months without any recurrence.
