Lymphangiomas are benign hamartomatous malformations, infrequently seen in the oral cavity. They can cause aesthetic issues and functional impairments if not treated in the initial stages, thus necessitating the need to diagnose early. Two presentations were observed: a 35-year-old male with classical frog-egg appearance involving lower buccal mucosa with macrocheilia for two years, which was diagnostic on mucoscopy and histopathology, confirming acquired capillary lymphatic malformation. The second case was of a 12-year-old girl with a gradual appearance of reddish lesions over the tongue and episodic history of bleeding, which was confirmed on mucoscopy, and histopathology is highlighted. Mucoscopy of both the cases showed yellowish-pink lacunae with a hypopyon-like feature and surrounding pale septa. We present two cases of oral lymphangiomas with different presentations and highlight the importance of dermoscopy of oral lesions to bypass invasive techniques such as biopsy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
