Abstract:
The salivary duct cyst is a rare disease and usually found in the parotid gland. A 55-years-old man presented swelling in the left buccal area and pathological diagnosis was a salivary duct cyst. Though its recurrence has been reported rare, the presented case showed recurrent swelling after enucleation. The recurrent lesion was successfully treated by incision and drain insertion.
