What Is a Ranula? A ranula is a fluid collection or cyst that forms in the mouth under the tongue . It is filled with saliva (spit) that has leaked out of a damaged salivary gland. Salivary glands are small structures around the mouth which make saliva. Saliva should drain from these glands directly into the mouth.
