A 19-old female with a large cavernous hemangioma located in the right lateral wall of the oropharynx between the superior pole of the palatine tonsil and the vallecula was removed surgically after embolization. The procedure consisted of a horizontal skin incision of the upper neck, mandibular bone dissection and obliteration of the defect with a pedicled sternomastoid muscle. The defect in the cavity was well epithelized 6 weeks postoperatively with minimal scar contraction.
