[Lingual hemangioma--research and treatment limits and possibilities (a clinical case)].

Abstract

The vascular tumours represent a special pathology in the otorhinolaryngologic practice, taking, many times, an interdisciplinary aspect. The authors present a case of a lingual hemangioma, that has been surgically treated in the ORL section of the Sibiu County Hospital, thus bringing forward, with reference to the presented case, the pathology of the vascular tumours in the ORL domain, that is the vascular tumours of the buccal cavity. As the conservatory methods of treatment include the possibility of a relapse, we consider that, in some cases, surgery is to be preferred.
