“…Moreover, although haemangiomas and vascular malformations are two pathologically separate entities, the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures used were identical, as were the healing phases after treatment (16,17). For these reasons, this paper generally refers to both haemangiomas and vascular malformations simply as vascular lesions.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of cryosurgery on 134 different benign oral lesions in 90 patients. All lesions were treated every 2 weeks until complete regression of the lesion had been achieved. Patients were examined at 2, 7, and 10 days, 2 and 4 weeks, and 3 and 6 months after the cryosurgery. The relationship between the number of cryosurgery applications to achieve complete regression and the type oflesions was assessed for statistical significance by one-way analysis of variance and with the Scheffe test. The mean application number of the cryosurgery was 1.82±0.49 for fibroma, 2.35±1.44 for vascular lesions, 1.50±0.70 for mucocele, 2.65±1.18 for lichen planus lesions. The difference between the type of the lesion and number of application was statistically significant for all groups (p< 0.05). Our data prove that a significantly fewer number of cryosurgery treatments are required to achieve complete regression for fibroma and mucocele lesions compared to lichen planus lesions. During the follow-up period, only 7 lichen planus lesions of 76 lesions recurred.

“…Twenty-four weeks after the operation, perfusion and oxygenation of the former graft harvest site are equal to unscathed mucosa. In addition, the application of laser resections for mucosal grafting and its outcome should be also evaluated in the future, which might result in lower donor site morbidity due to decreased pain (Vesnaver and Dovsak, 2009).…”

“…Although spontaneous haemorrhage has not been recorded in the oral cavity, except that of Jaspers (Jaspers, 1992), vigorous arterial bleeding is possible from trauma, or due to unexpected bleeding during surgical biopsy (Lovas and Goodday, 1993), and as occurred in this case. The importance of careful diagnosis of vascular anomalies is emphasised here because of the lifethreatening possibility of uncontrollable bleeding that may occur during oral and maxillo-facial surgery (Siniscalchi et al, 2009;Vesnaver and Dovsak, 2009). …”
