Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by multiple cutaneous venous malformations in association with visceral lesions, most commonly affecting the gastrointestinal tract. Oral cavity lesions occur in 59 to 64% of cases. We report a unique presentation of this syndrome in a 25-year-old male patient with prominent oral findings. This is a sporadic case, started during early childhood, progressively increasing in number and size. Oral vascular lesions were part of gastrointestinal involvement. Associated cardiac abnormalities were also observed. An early diagnosis of this syndrome is required as it gets complicated with bleeding, anemia and other systemic complications.

Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome, an uncommon condition, is manifested by gastrointestinal and skin hemangiomas and gastrointestinal hemorrhage causing anemia. The authors report a unique case of the syndrome in association with a congenital cardiac malformation. A 26-year-old woman presented with irondeficiency anemia after the birth of her first child. She had a history of skin and gastrointestinal hemangiomas and tetralogy of Fallot. Endoscopy revealed multiple new intestinal hemangiomas, which were removed through enterotomies with resolution of the anemia. Iron therapy was prescribed, and her condition was stable at follow-up 5 years later. Problème rare, le syndrome de Bean se manifeste par des hémangiomes gastrointestinaux et cutanés et une hémorragie gastrointestinale qui cause de l'anémie. Les auteurs décrivent un cas unique du syndrome lié à une malformation cardiaque congénitale. Une femme de 26 ans s'est présentée en état d'anémie sidéropénique après la naissance de son premier enfant. Elle avait des antécédents d'hémangiomes cutanés et gastrointestinaux et de tétralogie de Fallot. L'endoscopie a révélé de multiples hémangiomes intestinaux frais dont on a effectué l'ablation par entérotomie, ce qui a réglé l'anémie. On a prescrit une sidérothérapie et son état était stable après 5 ans de suivi.
