Unusual presentation of oral hemangioma in tongue and the potential use of propolis as an adjunctive treatment

Abstract

Abstract Tongue hemangioma is a rare case of vascular tumors that causes symptoms such as pain, bleeding, difficulty in chewing, speaking, and breathing. We report a case of an oral lobular capillary hemangioma on the dorsal surface of the tongue treated with surgical excision and postoperative application of propolis extract.
