Lipoma is the most common, benign, soft tissue, mesenchymal tumour and is composed of mature adipose tissue. It is infrequent in the oral cavity (approximately 0.3% of all tongue neoplasias). We describe the case of a 68-year-old man with a swelling at the tongue edge and tongue dysesthesia. Medical history, clinical assessment, radiographic images, and cytological analysis enabled specialists to classify this neoplasia as a lipoma. The patient recovered fully after surgical excision of the affected area, and the neuralgic symptoms regressed. Surgical excision is an elective treatment; however, accurate differential diagnosis, histological examination, and follow-up are required.
脂肪瘤是最常见的良性软组织间叶肿瘤，由成熟脂肪组织构成。它在口腔中较为少见（约占所有舌部肿瘤的0.3%）。我们描述了一名68岁男性患者，其舌缘有肿胀且伴有舌感觉异常。通过病史、临床评估、影像学检查和细胞学分析，专家将该肿瘤归类为脂肪瘤。患者在手术切除患区后完全康复，神经痛症状也消退了。手术切除是一种选择性治疗方法；然而，需要进行准确的鉴别诊断、组织学检查和随访。
