Abstract

Osteomas are rare benign bony tumors located in the tongue area. In most cases, patients presenting with a lingual osteoma are asymptomatic but may complain of the sensation of having a foreign body. Fewer than 100 cases of lingual osteoma have been reported worldwide. Here, we present 2 cases of tongue base osteoma that were treated with excision under a laryngoscope. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
