title: [Histopathology of mucoceles infiltrated with steroids].
abstract: The authors have had the opportunity to treat eight cases of lip mucocele with intralesional infiltration of Triamcinolone Acetonide (Kenacort). In three cases there was complete regression of the lesion after a variable period of time between the first and the fourth infiltration. In five cases the results were negative. The patients who reacted positively to treatment were followed-up for a year afterwards.
