Abstract
- The term "choristoma" is used to describe a mass of histologically normal tissue presenting in an aberrant site. The authors have experienced a case of lingual osseous choristoma in a 17-year-old female patient, which was totally removed and followed up for 12 months without any evidence of recurrence or developments to other disease.
