KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE
Hemangiomas of the tongue may reach a massive size resulting in
significant functional compromise for the patient. Despite the
incredible risk of hemorrhage from such a lesion, surgical resection may
be the only viable option if conservative measures such embolization are
ineffective in reducing the size of the lesion.
Key words: Hemangioma, massive hemangioma, tongue hemangioma,
congenital hemangioma, super-selective embolization, surgical
management.
