Abstract

Hemangiomas are benign tumors of infancy and childhood. These tumors are mostly in the neck and head region and occur more commonly in the palate, lips, and tongue. In this case report, we report a case of hemangioma of the body of the tongue, discussing the diagnostic aspects and treatment. A giant tumor malformation of the tongue diagnosed prenatally after birth proved to be a large hemangioma. He required multiple surgeries until the mouth could be closed and the child could eat well and look normal. Keywords: Tongue lesions, Hemangiomas, Congenital malformations, Ultrasonography
