Abstract
Hemangiomas are group of vascular anomalies which are not present at birth. They generally manifest within 3-4 weeks of life, consists of a rapid proliferative phase, stable plateau phase and slow involuting phase. Hemangiomas of the oral cavity are not commonly observed though head and neck are common sites. Histologically it may be evident in some cases that lymphatic channels are present in hemangiomas, and then it is be categorized according to the predominant component either Haemangiolymphangioma or lymphangiohemangiomas. All most all hemangiomas involute with time, but 10-20% of true hemangiomas don’t involute and require post- adolescent surgical treatment. In this article a case of Haemangiolymphangioma of right buccal mucosa in a 22-year-old male patient is reported. Various treatment modalities and their clinical implication have also been reviewed.
