Abstract

Haemangiomas are the most common benign soft tissue tumours of the oral cavity. It often presents at birth or soon after and appears as a soft and vascular swelling in the lip, tongue, or buccal mucosa. It can be managed medically or surgically. This article reports a case of hemangioma of the buccal mucosa in a 13-year-old boy effectively managed by sclerotherapy.
