Abstract

Tongue osteoma is a rare disease. Clinically, it occurs mainly in the posterior part of the tongue and may cause foreign body sensation, but most of it is found incidentally without any symptom. Clear mechanisms of development have not yet been established, but many hypotheses have been proposed. Treatment is possible with surgical resection and no recurrence or malignancy has been reported. We experienced a 29 year old man with osteoma of tongue. We report this case with a review of literature.
