Middle ear pathology in ancient and modern populations: incudal osteoma.

abstract：CONCLUSION:Schwannoma of the tongue always presents as a painless mass on the lingual surface and exhibits no gender preference. A schwannoma on the base of tongue is usually larger at presentation than one on the tongue itself, since it is asymptomatic initially. Complete resection is achievable and recurrence is unco...
