Abstract

Lingual osseous choristoma is a rare, benign, bony tumor without clear pathogenesis. Most patients present with an asymptomatic lump in the posterior tongue, while others may suffer from globus sensation, dysphagia, gagging, or irritation. Here, we present a case of lingual osseous choristoma in a pediatric patient managed with surgical excision.
