Mucocele is one of the most common salivary gland disorder that can appear in the lacrimal sac, paranasal sinuses, oral cavity, appendix, or gall bladder. These lesions occurs mostly due to mucous accumulation resulting from the trauma to the minor salivary glands on lip. Lower lip is the most common site of occurrence. Diagnosis is mainly clinical due to its appearance and secretion. We report a case of extravasation type of mucocele in a child treated by conventional surgical excision of the lesion.
