title: Juvenile xanthogranuloma of the tongue.
abstract: Oral juvenile xanthogranuloma is a rare condition, with only 10 histologically proven cases previously described. A histologically unusual variant is reported here, diagnosis of which was aided by the use of immunohistochemical stains. Previously reported cases are reviewed, and their characteristics are tabulated and discussed.
