Epithelioid hemangioma: A rare entity to report

Abstract

Epithelioid hemangioma (EH) or angiolymphoid hyperplasia is an uncommon benign vasculoproliferative neoplasm. We are reporting a case of EH involving the gingiva in a 12-year-old male patient who reported to the outpatient Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology with the chief complaint of gingival growth in the lower mandibular gingiva involving both buccal and lingual gingiva and facial asymmetry due to enlarged left submandibular lymph nodes. Histopathological features diagnosed the case definitive of EH.
