Abstract

Abstract We describe a case of congenital ranula or retention salivary cyst diagnosed at 26 weeks of gestation. The fetal karyotype was obtained by amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling, and was normal. Follow‐up ultrasound scans revealed no changes in the size or the position of the cyst. Surgical treatment was performed 2 days after a normal vaginal delivery, with excellent results. Copyright © 1998 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology
