Abstract

Benign lesions involving the floor of the mouth are a rare encounter. In this case, a middle-aged female presented to the outpatient department with a swelling involving the floor of the mouth which occupied enough space to displace the tongue. There was difficulty in mastication, and on examination, it was brilliantly transilluminant. After sonography, the patient underwent an excision of the mass which on histopathology surprisingly was revealed as a lipoma. Having an idea about the complicated nearby anatomy, it is imperative to dissect accurately to prevent morbidity arising out of the complications associated with damage to the various structures.
