Chirurgische behandeling van een sublinguale sialocoele (ranula) bij een kat

In this case report, a seven-year-old, male, castrated European Shorthair diagnosed with a ranula is described. The patient was presented with a sublingual swelling on the right side, which was surgically treated with marsupialization and removal of the mandibular and sublingual salivary glands. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a ranula and revealed the accidental resection of the right submandibualr lymph nodes. Five months after the operation, no complications or recurrences were observed.
