Abstract
Among all benign formations, lipomas are the most common and are located on any part of the body. However, they are rare in the oropharynx and oral cavity and account for 1-4% of cases. The tongue is devoid of fat cells, but there have been cases of patients with formations on the walls of the tongue, which, after morphological verification, were recognized as lipomas. The priority direction of treatment of these formations is surgical. The presented clinical cases confirm the importance of timely diagnosis of formations and the need for their removal.
