Mucous-retention cysts such as mucocele and ranula are caused by mucus extravasation due to rupture of ducts of the major and minor salivary glands. While several techniques have been used to treat retention cysts, micro-marsupialization is a relatively new, less invasive treatment modality. We describe this new method, which is not popular in Japan, and report the clinical outcomes of 13 cases of mucoceles and ranulas treated with this technique.We evaluated the therapeutic value of micro-marsupialization on the basis of cure rate and events such as infection and recurrence. As a result, ten cases (76.9%) showed complete remission of the lesions and three cases including one case of infection required retreatment.Micro-marsupialization seems to be a simple, minimally invasive and effective modality, and is well tolerated by patients. We accordingly suggest that it could be a primary treatment of choice for mucous retention cysts.

In this case report, we present a surgical orthodontic treatment performed for an aged female. The patient was a 62-year-old female with chief complaints concerning occlusal disharmony, dyslalia, and aesthetic disturbance. As a result of various analysis, the patient was diagnosed with mandibular prognathism accompanied by deep bite and reversed occlusion. Due to the venerability of the patient, she presented numerous risks. The patient was treated with Le Fort I osteotomy, sagittal split ramus osteotomy and genioplasty. To acquire and to maintain a stable postoperative occlusion, close cooperation with the prothodontist was carried out. Postoperatively, the patient's chief complaints were improved and she demonstrated satisfactory progress after one year. The results of this case report indicate that treatment of a jaw deformity with surgical orthodontic procedures is effective for the improvement of occlusal disorders as well as aesthetic problems. If there are no general health problems, this treatment may be applied irrespective of the patient's age.
