  • Title: Lobular capillary hemangioma of the mandible: A case report.
    Author: Chan C, Iv M, Fischbein N, Dahmoush H.
    Journal: Clin Imaging; 2018; 50():246-249. PubMed ID: 29704808.
    Abstract:
    Lobular capillary hemangiomas are acquired benign vascular neoplasms which typically affect the skin and mucous membranes. While these lesions commonly involve the head and neck, particularly the oral cavity, there are no reports in the literature of lobular capillary hemangioma arising from the mandible. The diagnosis of such a rare entity can therefore be challenging, especially as it may mimic more aggressive lesions, including malignancy. We present a rare case of an 8-year-old male with a lobular capillary hemangioma of the mandible, highlighting its imaging features and discussing the differential diagnosis of primary mandibular lesions in the pediatric population.
