Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: A hamartoma is a benign tumor-like malformation, often taking the form of vascular malformation such as hemangiomas and lymphangiomas; hamartoma composed of other tissue types are much rarer in the oral cavity, exceptionally reported in the palate. We report herein a new case of palatal hamartoma. Our aim is to describe the epidemiological, clinico-pathologic and therapeutic features of this lesion.
OBSERVATION: A 53-years-old woman had a painless mass located on the right hard palate, measuring 2×1.5 cm of diameter, the mass was elastic with a smooth surface. On imaging, this mass was well-circumscribed, homogenous with moderate enhancement and thinning of the bone. A surgical excision was performed. Histological examination showed an ill-defined mass composed of hyperplasic salivary gland, nerve fibers, blood vessels and adipose tissue. According to these findings, the palatal lesion was interpreted as hamartoma.
CONCLUSION: The palatal hamartoma can mimic clinically a malign neoplasm; its diagnosis is histological. Its treatment is essentially surgical. The prognosis is usually favorable without recurrence.
