Angiomyoma is frequently found in the skin and subcutaneous tissues, especially in the lower extremities, but it is rarely found in the oral cavity. A case of angiomyoma of the hard palatal region is here presented.<BR>A 42 year old housewife was referred by a dental clinic for swelling of the hard palate. She had been unconscious of this swelling until it was pointed out. Past and family histories were negative. Clinically, the tumor presented a painless well-defined, smooth, soft, compressible, submucosal swelling overlying the middle of the hard palate slightly to the left of the midline. The mucosal color was blue-purple. The clinical impression was hemangioma. In October, 14, 1982, the patient was given local anesthesia and an incision was made in the palatal mucosa along the circumference of the tumor. The tumor was easily removed en bloc with a part of the hard palatal mucosa. A surgical pac was packed into the cavity fixed by resin splint and was removed on the seventh postoperative day. She was admitted to the hospital because of bleeding that same evening. We stopped the bleeding and she was discharged the following day. Twelve months later, she is well and free of tumor. On section, the tumor measured about 9×9×5 mm and was a smooth, lobulated, white oval nodule. Microscopically there was well-delimited nodular tumor under mucosa with a delicate incomplete capsule. The tumor consisted of convoluted thick-walled vessels surrounded by benign smooth muscle with few elastic fibers. The pathological diagnosis was angiomyoma.<BR>Angiomyoma of the hard palatal region: Report of a case
