Her medical history was unremarkable. Intraoral examination revealed a soft ulcerated mass with hypertrophic margins and a yellowish base located on the right lateral border of the tongue, measuring ~2\u2009cm\u2009\u00d7\u20093\u2009cm. An incisional biopsy was performed, and the histological exam revealed hyperplastic epithelium, a site of proliferation of epithelioid endothelial elements. Immunohistochemistry showed positivity for ERG, and a final diagnosis of EHE was made. After excisional surgery, no local recurrence was reported at 24 months\u2019 follow\u2010up. A systematic review was conducted on the PubMed database, following PRISMA guidelines.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 35 included studies, 44 cases of EHE were identified, including our case report (21 male and 21 female), with a mean age of 35 years (\u00b119). The most frequently affected site was the gingiva, followed by the tongue (18 and 11). Local recurrence after surgical excision was reported in 18% of cases (8\/44). Only one case of metastasis was documented.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Vascular tumors should be considered in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue swellings of the oral cavity.
