ABSTRACT
Leiomyomata are benign smooth-muscle neoplasms
that are very common in certain parts of
the body, though quite rare in the oral cavity.
They can be divided into three subtypes: solid
leiomyoma, vascular leiomyoma, and epitheloid
leiomyoma. They usually appear in the 5th and
6th decade of life, with no greater incidence in
either sex or race. They are most commonly
found on the lip, though can appear in many
other locations, including intraosseously.
Clinically they appear as a small (1-2 cm) slowgrowing
asymptomatic sessile mass with a firm
consistency. The treatment of choice is surgical
excision, which results in a very low rate of
recurrence and excellent prognosis.
We present the case of a 13-year-old male patient
with a lip lesion diagnosed as vascular
leiomyoma.
