In the head and neck region, they more often present in the midline between the submental region and the supra sternal notch. EC in the oral cavity are extremely rare and present as benign, slow growing lesions.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods\u2002<\/jats:bold> Records from College of Dental Surgery, Saveetha University, from 2002 to 2006 were searched for cases coded as EC.
