Abstract: Most common lesions seen in children are mucoceles. However, treating these lesions in small children is a complicated task as they do not cooperate during surgical procedures. Various techniques have been described for the treatment of mucocele; but most of these procedures are invasive. Also, procedures from wide excision with scalpel to laser are associated with few complications. Micro‑marsupialization is a minimally invasive technique for the management of mucocele, especially in the pediatric age group. Since, it is easy to accomplish with minimum armamentarium and can be performed under topical anesthesia with low incidence of complications. The current case report describes the successful management of mucocele by micro‑marsupialization in a pediatric patent.
