Abstract

Lymphangiomas are benign tumors of the lymphatic vessels, usually found in children. When these tumors occur in the oral cavity, the tongue is the most frequently affected site.In the absence of treatment lymphangiomas, may increase in size, producing macroglossia, swallowing and speech interferences, and respiratory difficulty. Isolated location of the lesion in the midline of the tongue reported here are unusual; few similar cases have been reported in the literature. Complete surgical excision provided not only removal of the lesion, but allowed normal recontou-ring of the tongue.

Özet

Lenfanjiomalar genellikle çocuklarda görülen lenfatik damarların benign tümörleridir. Bu tümörler oral kavi-tede ortaya çıktıklarında dil en sık tutulan bölgedir. Lenfanjiomalar tedavi edilmezlerse boyutları büyüyebilir, makroglosiye neden olurlar, yutma ve konuşma bozuklukları ve solunum güçlüğüne neden olabilirler. Burada belirtildiği gibi dilin tam ortasındaki izole lez-yonlar oldukça nadirdir; literatürde benzer birkaç vaka bildirilmektedir. Kitlenin bütününü içine alan cerrahi eksizyon hem lezyonun çıkarılmasına olanak verir hem de dilin normal şekline kavuşmasını sağlar.
