Resumo: Osseous choristomas of the tongue are rare, benign lesions composed of abnormally placed bone and cartilage tissue. A 34-year-old female patient presented with a sessile nodule measuring 1.5 cm on the posterior portion of the dorsum of the tongue. Clinical diagnosis was pyogenic granuloma. An excisional biopsy was carried out to reach final diagnosis. The microscopic features revealed stratified squamous epithelium covering a stroma containing collagen and mature compact bone with osteocytes reaching a diagnosis of tongue osseous choristoma. The lesion was removed, the patient was referred back to her primary care provider with no recurrence at 2 years of follow-up. In conclusion, osseous choristoma in oral cavity is rare with 35 cases related and osseous choristomas of the tongue are rare benign processes and clinicians should consider it if patients present a lingual mass and accompanying symptoms of a gagging or globus sensation.
