Sublingual Dermoid in an Adult Patient.

Dermoid cysts in the floor of the mouth are a relatively rare and unusual site of location anomalies presumed to be caused by entrapment of germinal epithelium along the lines of embryonic fusion. It presents as soft, non-painful, and slowly growing swelling along the lines of fusion during the closure of mandibular and hyoid branch arches. These cysts are developmental and histopathologically classified into three types: epidermoid, dermoid, and teratoid. We are reporting a rare case of a 32-year-old female who presented in the outpatient department with complaints of painless swelling over the floor of the mouth for two years, suggesting a benign sublingual mass. This case report underscores the importance of clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, and surgical approach in achieving successful outcomes for sublingual mass.
