Cavernous Lymphangioma of the Lower Lip- A Rare Case Report

Abstract

Lymphangioma are rare, benign, and hamartomatous tumors of the lymphatic vessels, that show a marked predilection for the head and neck region. Very few cases of Cavernous lymphangioma have been reported to occur in the lower lip. We report a rare case of Cavernous Lymphangioma of the lower lip in a 13 years old child who was treated surgically by excision and primary closure. Postoperative wound healing was satisfactory and there was no recurrence found till the last follow up.

KEY WORDS: - Cavernous Lymphangioma, Lower lip, Surgical excision.
