Osteocartilaginous choristomas are rare, benign lesions characterized by the presence of mature bone and cartilage in ectopic sites. While these lesions are commonly found in the head and neck region (particularly tongue) their occurrence in the tonsil is exceedingly rare. We present a case of a 26-year-old female with an incidental finding of bilateral tonsillar osteocartilaginous choristomas during evaluation for multiple episodes of tonsillitis. The patient underwent surgical excision with a favourable outcome. This report aims to highlight the clinical presentation, diagnostic challenges, and management of this rare entity, along with a review of literature.
