A case of hemangioma

: A case of an atypic hemangioma involving the incisors palatal mucosa of a 12 year old patient is presented here. The biopsy shows some features of hemangioma: blood vessels with large lumen surrounded by endothelial cells, suggesting arteries. A large part of the connective tissue is fibrous and inflammatory. These observations lead us to the diagnosis of fibro angiomatous tumor. The treatment consisted in surgical excision. No recurrence has since occurred.
