During the ten last years, 13 neural tumors of the tongue have been observed in the department of stomatology and maxillo-facial surgery of Salpêtrière Hospital Paris (Prof. J.M. Vaillant): 4 amputation neuromas, 5 benign schwannomas, 1 malignant schwannoma, 2 neurofibromas and 1 multiple endocrine syndrome type III. The authors analyze the clinical and histological data from these case-reports; they point out difficulties encountered in the diagnosis, and the prognostic problems brought up by such infrequent lesions.
