Angiomyoma of the palate--a case report.
Leiomyomas are rare tumors of the palate amongst which angiomyomas are the commonest sub-type. Recurrence is rare and prognosis is excellent. Only a few case reports are available in literature. We report a case of angiomyoma of the palate presenting as an encapsulated swelling in the roof of the mouth.
