Results: A 25-year-old lady presented with a painless chronic submandibular swelling. Ultrasound identified a solid mass following which an uncomplicated core biopsy was performed obtaining an accurate pre-operative histopathological diagnosis. Pre-operative arterial embolization of this vascular mass led to a relatively bloodless wide local excision. Radiological imaging for distant metastases was negative.
