Abstract

A 67-year-old man presented with a multilobulated, soft lesion at the tip of the tongue, causing articulation problem. The patient stated that it had been present for more than 30 years. Oral examination showed a multilobular mass with a large base, 15×15×10 mm in size. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a multilocular cystic tumor. The patient underwent total excision. After surgery, tongue movement and sensation were normal. Histopathologic diagnosis was cystic lymphangioma.
