Hengameh Hirbod, Salina Husain, Mazita Binti Ami.


Abstract
Schwannomas or neurilemmomas are benign, slow growing, usually solitary and encapsulated tumor, originating from Schwann cells of the nerve sheath. Intraoral schwannoma account for only 1% of the head and neck region and are commonly seen at the tongue base region. In this article, we report a case of lingual schwannoma involving the posterior tongue, in whom the lesion was completely excised via an intra oral approach. (Rawal Med J 2011;36:60-61).

Key words: Schwannoma, tongue, intraoral mass.
