Abstract :

A 16-year-old girl presented with a 4-year history of midline swelling in the tongue that is painless, slightly reddish, and associated with previous trauma with no associated symptoms. The patient underwent excision of the tongue lesion under general anesthesia. Final histopathology diagnosis of this benign spindle cell lesion was Schwannoma.
