Abstract
A male infant presented with unilateral cystic swelling in the floor of his mouth as a result of congenital stenosis of the orifice of duct of Wharton. Early diagnosis and treatment is important to avoid feeding difficulties and to prevent later complications. Multidetector computed tomography can be used as a diagnostic tool in order to differentiate congenital cystic lesions of the floor of the mouth.
