Abstract EN
Pediatric head and neck masses are commonly congenital in origin or of infectious etiology.
We present a rare case of benign mesenchymoma in close proximity to the submandibular gland in an otherwise asymptomatic child.
Computerized tomography (CT) scan of the head and neck area revealed a benign lesion, which was later determined to be a benign mesenchymoma on histopathology.
The child did well after surgery without any reported recurrence.
We discuss the salient features of a benign mesenchymoma in a child and also discuss relevant imaging and management.
