Abstract
Angiomyomatous hamartoma of head and neck region is very are disease, of unknown etiology and more often than not it can be misdiagnosed preoperatively. Materials and Methods: In a study we present a case of angiomyomatous hamartoma in the carotid triangle, a site where a tumor has an invasion to external carotid artery, treatment carried out by surgical excision, after histological examination, the final diagnosis was made. The patient was under observation for 3 years, there were no relapses. Conclusion: The diagnosis of angiomyomatous hamartoma is based on histologic examination. Although this entity is rare, we believe that head and neck surgeons should include it in the differential diagnosis of head and neck masses.
