Large hemangioma of the tongue
SM Balaji, Preetha BalajiIndian Journal of Dental Research 2020 31(6):979-982
Hemangiomas are the most common benign vascular tumours, often reported in very young. Though the head and neck regions have high predilection, intra-oral hemangiomas (IH) are very rare. In spite of numerous treatment options, the IH are ideal candidates for surgical exoneration. The reasons for this are manifold. This manuscript intends to present a case of IH arising in the tongue along with subsequent macroglossia. The treatment and surgical strategy based on cardinal principles of macroglossia corrections are described. A note on the challen...

The initial diagnosis of globulomaxillary cyst was made solely from radiographs by observing a reverse pear-shaped radiolucency between the lateral incisor and cuspid. The results following pulp testing and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) evaluation revealed the endodontic origin of the lesion, which entailed the treatment carried out ...
