Resumen
VENTURINO, Ignacio; VENTURINO, Juan Pedro; SABAS, Martín y POMAR, Mabel. Lingual schwannoma: case report and brief review of the literature. Rev. Asoc. Odontol. Argent. [online]. 2021, vol.109, n.3, pp.203-206. Epub 15-Dic-2021. ISSN 2683-7226. http://dx.doi.org/10.52979/raoa.1107.
Aim:
To describe a case of lingual schwannoma, and through a literature review, to provide data on clinical, imaging and pathological features, as well as treatment methods.
Clinical case:
A 26-year-old male patient with a swelling in the tip of the tongue was diagnosed as having oral schwannoma. A single surgery was performed, without recurrence or postoperative complications at least during a 12-month follow-up. Lingual schwannoma is a rare entity with benign clinical and imaging characteristics that enable surgical removal without prior biopsy when size and oral location are favorable.
