Abstract

Significance Statement: Neurovascular hamartomas (NVH) is an uncommon tumor-like developmental anomaly. We hereby report the case of a 28-year-old woman presenting with multiple millimetric excrescences in the oral cavity that were clinically interpreted as squamous cell papilloma and histologically consistent with NVHs. Neurovascular hamartomas is rare in the oral cavity. To the best of our knowledge, multiple NVHs have never been reported at this site.

Keywords: hamartomas; neurovascular hamartomas; oral cavity.
