Herein, we present a female 10-year-old patient who consulted for a condition with three weeks of evolution of a midline lesion of the tongue ventral surface, characterized as a cystic, sessile, reddish mass, of progressive growth, associated to occasional pain Fig. 1 (A), which six months back had been operated at another institution with diagnosis of mucocele, with later reappearance of such. Under general anesthesia, complete resection was performed of the mass with marsupialization Fig. 1 (B and C).
