“…Salivary gland disease is a common manifestation of HIV infection, with a significant increase in prevalence over the last two decades. The term "HIV-associated salivary gland disease" is recently used to designate HIV infection with salivary gland swelling involving the parotid gland, with or without xerostomia, benign lymphoepithelial cysts, or ranula salivary gland swelling involving the parotid gland, with or without xerostomia, benign lymphoepithelial cysts, or ranula [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] . The prompt recognition is invaluable in the diagnosis and treatment of both the salivary gland diseases including ranula and HIV infection.…”

“…ART is usually performed as a treatment for HIV infection, but it may not be effective for HIV-associated salivary gland diseases [7 , 8] . It is very effective for benign lymphoepithelial cysts, but it produces a limited response in ranula [8] . In conclusion, although HIV-associated salivary gland disease is rare, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ranula.…”

Introduction. Oral manifestations are often the earliest HIV signs. Salivary gland diseases are a common form of HIV expression. A ranula can occur in association with HIV. However, this manifestation is rarely considered as the disease sentinel sign. We present two cases of children consulting for a ranula, leading to the diagnosis of a previously unknown HIV infection. Case Reports. Two children, respectively, 5 and 13, were treated for a ranula by marsupialization. Relapse occurred in both cases, and thereafter, a ranula excision was performed. While the follow-up was uneventful, HIV infection was diagnosed during the patients’ care. The only sign or symptom observed was the ranula. A routine HIV testing of ranula patients would have allowed earlier care. Conclusion. Routine HIV testing of patients with a ranula is justified and may be recommended, especially for children. Ranula excision associated with the sublingual gland resection is suggested in order to avoid recurrence.

“…Em relação ao acometimento, as rânulas são mais comuns em crianças, contudo podem acometer jovens adultos e pacientes na terceira década de vida [6,14,19]. Tais dados estão de acordo com o presente estudo, no qual o paciente acometido era um adolescente de 13 anos de idade.…”

Introdução: Rânula é uma lesão que acomete glândula salivar menor, especialmente no assoalho bucal, resultando na obstrução parcial ou completa do ducto excretor glandular, com retenção da secreção. O tratamento dessa lesão inclui micromarsupialização e remoção cirúrgica por diferentes técnicas. Objetivo: Apresentar um estudo de caso sobre a técnica cirúrgica de drenagem associada à excisão cirúrgica no tratamento da rânula em paciente pediátrico.Relato de caso: Paciente do sexo masculino, 13 anos, apresentou cisto de retenção salivar e foi atendido em clínica-escola privada em Teresina (PI). Após o exame clínico e a formulação da hipótese de diagnóstico, o tratamento foi definido como aspiração e remoção. A lesão que se apresentava mais distendida foi tratada por meio de drenagem por micromarsupialização e posteriormente removida por excisão cirúrgica, tornando possível menor envolvimento de estruturas adjacentes. Conclusão: O diagnóstico clínico da rânula possibilita o tratamento mais adequado, com preservação de tecido impedindo a recidiva da lesão, entretanto deve-se sempre ter como auxílio o exame histopatológico
