ABSTRACT

Sublingual lipomas are uncommon benign lesions of the oral cavity. It is often difficult to distinguish this condition from other more sinister conditions clinically. Imaging plays an important role in establishing the diagnosis and distinguishing this entity from other conditions. We present a case of sublingual lipoma in a middle aged man with relatively atypical ultrasonographic features. Subsequent cross sectional imaging helped in making a definite diagnosis.

Keywords: Sublingual lipomas are uncommon ultrasonographic definite diagnosis.
