Abstract

Oral hemangioma is a rare benign vascular tumor. It may occur on lips, tongue, buccal mucosa, and palate. Hemangioma is a congenital hamartoma and its clinical presentations and patients’ history aid in its diagnosis. Histopathologically, hemangioma shows flatted endothelial cells and small capillary size space. In this report, we will describe a rare presentation of oral hemangioma as an asymptomatic tongue ulcer in a 32-year-old woman. The clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, and management will also be described in detail.
