Mass excision was done under general anesthesia .Post op histopathological examination conrmed it to be a neurobroma.Neurobromas of tongue are a rare occurence1.They may be sporadic or associated with neurobromatosis syndromes.Along with schwannoma ,broma, neurobroma also forms an important differential diagnosis in the swellings of tongue.
