Neurothekeoma, a rare tumour of the tongue.
1999
Neurothekeomas are benign tumours mostly arising in the face and upper limbs predominantly in young women. Histologically they can be classified as cellular or myxoid, and complete surgical resection is the treatment of choice. In this case of a neurothekeoma located in the anterior tongue of a child, cryotherapy was used as the treatment modality, in order to avoid a greater loss of tongue function.
