Resumo

ABSTRACT: The Schwannoma or neurilemmoma tumor originates from Schwann cells present in nerve sheaths. At oral level, its most frequent location is at the back of the tongue, being much more frequent in adults. In the pediatric population, this occurrence is rare and most frequently found in the tongue. At palatal level, only 11 reports are known in children under 16 years of age. The aim of this report is to present an unusual clinical case of palatal schwannoma in a 12-year-old Chilean boy, referred with a clinical diagnosis of mucoepidermoid carcinoma. The case was complemented with panoramic radiography and Cone beam, for its subsequent incisional biopsy. Finally, a solid palatal schwannoma was diagnosed. It is important to consider schwannoma as a differential diagnosis in cases of palatal tumors, especially in pediatric cases, since they can present similar clinical characteristics to salivary gland tumors.
