Liesegang rings are lamellated concretions commonly found in chronic cystic lesions that are inflamed, necrotic, fibrotic, or hemorrhagic. We report on an unusual case of a 14‐yr‐old girl with an acute, rapidly enlarging solid submental mass in which Liesegang rings were identified on aspirate smears. Diagn.
