| Abstract: | Tumors composed of neoplastic proliferation of spindle shaped cells can present in oral cavity orig-inating from epithelial, mesenchymal, or even odontogenic tissues. Forty years old female presented with a history of painful slow-growing swelling on lingual aspect of lower left first molar. It was one year old. Radiological findings were inconclusive and excisional biopsy of soft tissue mass was taken. The tissue was sent for histopathology and diagnosis of spindle cell neoplasm of neural origin was established after histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis. This case report also briefly reviews spindle cell neoplasms of neural origin that can manifest in oral cavity. |
