Intraoral Verrucous Hemangioma: A Case Report

Verrucous hemangioma is a lesion with a very rare occurrence in the oral cavity. It is commonly found on the extremities. This case report describes a rare case of verrucous hemangioma present intraorally in a pediatric patient. A 13 year old male patient reported with a complaint of lump in lower left back tooth region with associated difficulty in swallowing. On clinical examination, a proliferative growth, bluish black in colour was seen distal to mandibular left second permanent molar. Papules were observed on the soft palate extending into pharynx. Radiographic investigations and incisional biopsy was performed. Radiographic and histopathological evaluation followed by immunohistochemistry analysis helped to confirm the diagnosis as verrucous hemangioma.
