Abstract
Choristomas are aggregates of microscopically normal tissues in aberrant locations. They can be cartilage, bone, glial tissue, salivary gland, and thyroid tissue. Cartilaginous choristomas of the oral cavity are rare and occur most commonly on the tongue and less often in sites such as the soft palate and gingiva. We report two cases of cartilaginous choristoma in young females presenting with recurrent tonsillitis. Histopathological examination showed the presence of mature island of hyaline cartilage surrounded by lymphoid hyperplasia. Level of Evidence: Level 4.
