Sublingual dermoid kistler için alternatif bir cerrahi yaklaşım: Olgu sunumu

Abstract

Kırk iki yaşında kadın hasta ağız tabanında ağrısız kitle yakınmasıyla kliniğimize başvurdu. Hasta, kitle- nin 40 yıldır var olduğunu ve son bir yıldır büyüdüğü- nü belirtti. Muayenede yaklaşık 5x4 cm boyutlarında kitle görüldü. Şişlikten yapılan aspirasyon materyali- nin incelemesi sonucu lezyonun kist olduğu anlaşıl- dı. Süperior tabanlı “U” şeklinde flep ile kistik yapı çı- karıldı. Histopatolojik incelemede kist duvarının çok katlı yassı epitelle döşendiği görüldü. İyi görüş sağ- ladığı için oral mukozayı koruyan ve lingual sinir ve submandibular duktusa zarar vermeyen bu yöntem alternatif bir cerrahi yaklaşım olabilir

An alternative surgical approach for sublingual dermoid cysts: a case report

Abstract

A 52-year-old woman presented with a painless swelling in the floor of the mouth. She stated that it had existed there for 40 years and had undergone a grad- ual enlargement within the past year. Examination showed a mass, 5x4 cm in size. An aspiration from the lesion revealed a cyst. The lesion was removed by a U- shaped superior based flap. Histopathological exami- nation showed stratified squamous epithelium lining the cystic lumen. This technique can be an alternative approach in such lesions because it protects the oral mucosa by providing good exposure, and prevents injury to the lingual nerve and submandibular duct.
