Heterotopic neuroglial tissue masses are very rare, congenital benign tumors that cause dislocation of bones; on the other hand, lymphangiomas are more frequent, benign hamartomatous neoplasms that infiltrate soft tissues and bones without distorsion and dislocation of skeletal structures. In our case, the distortion of the mandibular bone could have guided us to the diagnosis of a heterotopic neuroglial tissue mass.

Abstract

Heterotopic neuroglial tissue masses are very rare, congenital benign tumors that cause dislocation of bones; on the other hand, lymphangiomas are more frequent, benign hamartomatous neoplasms that infiltrate soft tissues and bones without distorsion and dislocation of skeletal structures. In our case, the distortion of the mandibular bone could have guided us to the diagnosis of a heterotopic neuroglial tissue mass.
