<\/span><\/h2>\nA mucocele (American spelling "mucocele") is another name for mucous<\/span> cyst<\/span>. Mucocoele forms when bugger<\/span> o saliva leaks into surrounding tissues and a granulation coating o connective tissue<\/span> It is shaped to create a smooth, smooth, round liquid-filled lump. They occur more frequently on the inner surface of the lower lip (75% of cases) but can also appear on the floor of the mouth (in this region they are known as ranulas) or on the gum (gums), vestibular. mucous membrane<\/span> (inner lining of the cheeks) and tongue.<\/p>\n<\/span>What are the signs and symptoms of mucocoele?<\/span><\/h2>\nMucocoele tends to be transparent, filled with mucous dome-shaped lesions. Single or multiple injuries can occur and can vary from 1 to 15 mm in diameter. Superficial lesions acquire a bluish color to translucent<\/span> color due to the thin layer of epithelium<\/span> covering the bluish capillaries<\/span>. Deeper lesions are usually the same color as the rest of the lip, as they are covered with a thicker layer of tissue. Bleeding in the injury<\/span> may cause a bright red color and occasionally may resemble a hemangioma<\/span>. Sometimes the surface of the lesion can become white, rough, and scaly<\/span> due to repeated suctioning of the injury.<\/p>\nIn most cases of superficial mucoceles, the lesions tend to persist for several days or weeks, break spontaneously (usually while eating), and heal within a few days after they break. They are often repeated over and over again. The repeated appearance of mucocele can lead to a permanent lump on the inner surface of the lip.<\/p>\n
Mucocoele are painless but bothersome lesions because people are well aware of irregularities in the mouth.<\/p>\n\n<\/span>Mucocele of the lip<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

<\/span>What causes mucocoele?<\/span><\/h2>\nMucocoele are generally the result of trauma<\/span> in the mouth, which injures the small salivary ducts inside the lip. Injury or breakdown of these microscopic<\/span> The excretory ducts lead to an accumulation of mucus within the connective tissue of the lip. Biting your lips or sucking by drawing the mucous membranes<\/span> The lower lip between the teeth is believed to be common causes. Often, the victim is not aware of having suffered an injury.<\/p>\n<\/span>How was the diagnosis made?<\/span><\/h2>\nA biopsy<\/span> mucocoeleal injury can be performed to rule out other suspicions mucocutaneous<\/span> diseases<\/p>\n<\/span>What is the treatment for mucocoele?<\/span><\/h2>\nSuperficial mucoceles usually resolve spontaneously and do not require specific treatment. Evening primrose oil has been used with varying degrees of success in a limited number of patients with multiple superficial mucoceles. However, the mucocoeles reappeared a few months after the treatment was stopped.<\/p>\n
If superficial mucoceles recur frequently and become problematic for the patient, treatment options include surgical removal, creation of a pouch (marsupialization) within the lesion, freezing (cryosurgery), To be<\/span> ablation<\/span>and micro marsupialization. These treatment options are also used to treat deeper injuries.<\/p>\nIf it is adequate and complete surgical excision<\/span> is achieved with adjacent<\/span> minor salivary glands removed or treated, there should be reappearance<\/span> mucocoeles.<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u00bfQu\u00e9 es mucocoele del labio?
