[Hemolymphangioma of the tongue treated with combination embolization-surgery. Apropos of a case].
Hemolymphangioma of the tongue is a benign vascular tumor. Episodes of activity lead progressively to the development of macroglossia which causes secondary complications. The clinical diagnosis of the tumor is confirmed by arteriography with superselective catheterisation. Arteriography assesses blood flow in the malformation, serving as a basis for classification and permitting embolisation of the tumor, the first stage of treatment.
