“…In agreement with the present study, most lesions are diagnosed in young adults [29], with the mean age ranging from 27.6 to 39.8 years [25,28]. Although oral lymphoepithelial cysts may develop wherever normal or accessory lymphoid tissue is present [30], the most common site is the floor of the mouth, accounting for 50 to 80.9% of all cases, followed by the tongue and soft palate [25,27,28]. In contrast, in the present study a higher frequency of lymphoepithelial cysts was observed in the tongue, followed by the oropharynx and floor of the mouth.…”

“…However, a marked female predominance of oral lymphoepithelial cysts was observed in the present series, with a female/male ratio of 4.0:1. In agreement with the present study, most lesions are diagnosed in young adults [29], with the mean age ranging from 27.6 to 39.8 years [25,28].

“…Branchial cleft cysts, which are characterized by swelling in the upper third of the lateral neck anterior to the ster-nocleidomastoid muscle [4], have also been reported to be located at unusual sites, such as oral cavity, parotid gland, and pancreas [6][7][8] . The histogenesis of branchial cleft cysts is unclear, but is generally assumed to be a developmental abnormality originating from branchial cleft remnants.…”

“…O cisto linfoepitelial oral é uma lesão incomum, cuja patogênese permanece incompletamente elucidada (1,3,4,(7)(8)(9)15) . De acordo com Knapp (12) , os cistos linfoepiteliais orais seriam decorrentes de obstrução na cripta de uma tonsila oral, na qual se acumulariam células epiteliais descamadas e/ou material purulento.…”
