Abstract
Rannula of the canine is a condition involving the retention of the flow of saliva from the submaxillary gland. Synonymous terms are retention cyst and submaxillary cyst but the condition is erroneously called sublingual cyst, a separate disease. Etiology includes calculi, foreign bodies, trauma, stenosis, and congenital anomalies.
