We describe a rare case of a varix with old thrombosis in a 71-year-old woman. A round, elastic hard, mobile mass (10 mm in a diameter) was detected in the right buccal region. The surface of the mass was smooth, and the overlying buccal mucosa was normal. Radiographic examinations showed a clearly bordered round radiolucent mass at the anterior edge of the ramus. The mass was completely enucleated through an intraoral approach with the patient under local anesthesia. Histopathologically, the mass was diagnosed as a varix with old thrombosis. The postoperative course has been uneventful.
