ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Although surgical excision has been considered to be the treatment of choice by most of the surgeons, sclerotherapy of ranula has gained popularity during recent years. A prospective clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Picibanil(R) sclerotherapies for treating ranula children. SUBJECTS ANDMETHOD:
Three patients were enrolled in the study conducted during 2002. All patients were not hospitalized. Picibanil(R) was injected into the lesion. One girl and two boys with ages ranging from 8 to 12 years were treated.RESULTS:
Disappearance or marked reduction of the lesion and no recurrence of the ranula were observed in all children. Following each injection, local pain at the injection site was observed in 2 children and transient fever was observed in one child, but such problems resolved within a few days and no serious complication was developed.CONCLUSION:
Our experience gives a suggestion that intralesional injection therapy using Picibanil(R) for intraoral ranula is relatively safe and can be used as a substitute for surgery in the treatment of ranula.
