Abstract:
Spindle cell hemangioma ( SCH ) is an uncommon benign vascular tumor that rarely occurs in the mouth. Methods and Results We present an SCH arising in the tongue of a 52‐year‐old otherwise healthy woman. SCH should be considered in the differential diagnosis of vascular tumors in the oral cavity and not misinterpreted as a more aggressive vascular tumor. We describe the clinical presentation, investigation, differential diagnosis and management of this condition and a literature search showing published case reports. Conclusion Although SCH rarely presents in the oral cavity it needs to be considered in the differential diagnosis of oral cavity tumors.
