摘　　要：Objective： To explore the clinical effect of electro-acupuncture （EA） in treating patients with lingual hemangioma （LHG）. Methods： EA therapy was applied on 36 patients by directly inserting the platinum needles into LHG through a trocar with plastic insulating cannula to protect the normal tissues and connecting the needles with the electro-chemical therapeutic apparatus of model ZAY-B. Then electricity was given until the tumor body got contracted and rigid. The result was assessed 6 months after EA was started. Results： All patients were treated effectively, namely, the effective rate was 100%, with the therapeutic effect reaching grade Ⅰ in 29 patients （80.6%）, grade Ⅱ in 7 （19.4%）, and all having the function of tongue recovered to normal. Conclusion： EA shows special superiorities in treating LHG, proved to bring a- bout less injury and quick recovery and being simple in operation. Especially when applied on huge LHG, it could not only remove the tumor, but also preserve the function of the tongue, so it is a brand-new approach that is likely to be accepted by patients.Objective： To explore the clinical effect of electro-acupuncture （EA） in treating patients with lingual hemangioma （LHG）.
