Venous Hemangioma in Hemilabium Case Report

Abstract

Infantile hemangiomas (IH) are benign tumorous vascular lesions of endothelial origin that appear in early childhood with a higher incidence in women than men affecting 8-12% of infants. Clinically, variables in size and shape are appreciated predominant in the skin, subcutaneous tissues, bone, liver and spleen. In rare cases, they even become ominous in appearance and generate functional disability that interferes with eating and language. The correct diagnosis is achieved through the clinic and diagnostic aids such as nuclear magnetic resonance imaging techniques. Treatment must be multidisciplinary. It depends on the size, location and style of the lesion. We present the case of a 6-year-old female patient with a three-year-long brown-colored increase in volume on her lower left lip occurs intermittently with increase and dissemination of the lesion with exacerbation pictures which was treated surgically by the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery of the Children's Hospital of Morelia.
