| Popis: | Clinically, a vascular malformation is characterized by a soft, red to purple papule or nodule with a moriform or smooth surface. The clinical aspects depend on the level of vascular congestion and the depth of the lesion. It is usually asymptomatic, and when the oral mucosa involved, it commonly affects the lips, tongue, and buccal mucosa. A 72-year-old black male patient came to our oral diagnosis clinic presenting a lesion with 10 years of evolution. Oral examination revealed a purple nodular lesion on the lower lip measuring 9.0 × 9.0 cm, which had a positive result on diascopy. The clinical hypothesis was a vascular malformation. The treatment was sclerotherapy, and it was initiated with 5% of ethanolamine oleate, which was progressively concentrated up to 25%. A total remission of the lesion was seen after 8 weekly sessions of injection, and there are no signs of recurrence. |
