Abstrakt: Background: 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.
