  • Schwannoma is a relatively uncommon, slow-growing benign tumor that is derived apparently from the Schwann cell. Tongue originated schwannomas are exceedingly rare within 1% and therefore often are not immediately included in the differential diagnosis and oral cavity tumors. In the current study, authors report a case of a schwannoma located at the tongue of a 49 years old patient treated by complete surgical excision. The patient is under clinical control, with no signs of recurrence even after 6 months.

  • The hemangioma, a benign proliferation of blood vessel, is the most common tumor of infancy and childhood. In many instances, the lesion probably represents a hamartoma or malformation rather than a true neoplasm. In the oral cavity, common sites are lips, followed by tongue, buccal mucosa and palate. Clinical characteristics appear as a flat or raised reddish-blue lesion and are generally solitary. They are classified on the basis of their histological appearance into capillary, mixed, cavernous or a sclerosing variety. A 6-year-old male of this case was referred to the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Chonnam National University with a chief complaint of swelling lesion on gingiva. The strawberry appearance mass was detected by clinical examination on attached gingiva at the upper left primary lateral incisor and canine. Surgical excision and biopsy were carried out for histological examination and the lesion was diagnosed with a capillary hemangioma. The risk of recurrence after this therapy is rare, and there is no malignant transformation. Despite their benign origins and behaviour, hemangiomas in the region of oral cavity are always clinically important to the dental profession because of bleeding tendency.
