Suspected salivary mucocele?


  • 13 yrs
  • MN
  • Bichon mix
  • 5″ x 3″ soft fluctuant swelling near the R submandibular LN

Would this be consistent with a salivary mucocele?  No CF on the top structure, mild CF on the gland below.

I was there for an echo and was curious what this potential mucocele would look like.

Thank you!

Karen

    Most likley, athough a hematoma or abscess can look the same. Easiest way is to apsirate and see what type of fluid is aspirated.
