The presence of sebaceous glands in the oral mucosa is not uncommon, however, sebaceous elements are rarely found on the tongue. Only six cases of ectopic sebaceous glands of the tongue have been reported previously. And four cases of them which have formed duct-like structure were discussed in relation to the thyloglossal duct.<BR>We have recently encountered a case which was clinically and microscopically similar to the prior cases. In this article, a case report was presented with the review of the literature.
