Abstract
The term hemangioma has traditionally been applied to a variety of vascular lesions, ranging from lifelong conditions to self-limited, benign tumours of infancy. However, despite the frequency of these tumours, their pathogenesis is often incompletely understood and so the management of these lesions still remains controversial. Advances in imaging techniques and novel therapeutic approaches, have altered our understanding of this common problem and the way we approach it. We present a case of vascular malformation of the upper lip and labial mucosa that was surgically treated at our centre. Intraoral mucosal flap were advanced for primary closure of the defect. Postoperative phase was uneventful, six month follow up shows no recurrence of the lesion.
