Abstract

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) is a benign vascular lesion resembling hemangioma It rarely occurs in the oral mucosa and is histologically characterized by the papillary proliferation of endothelial cells during thrombus organization.
We report two cases of IPEH on the lower lip and the tongue. Because the lesion grows gradually, surgical excision is the treatment of choice.
