Abstract
Osseous choristoma is a rare, benign lesion which usually develops in the tongue adjacent to the foramen caecum. This report presents a case occurring in the palatal region, as well as a review of the literature. A differential diagnosis of this condition from other bone-forming lesions of the soft tissue is also discussed.
