Abstract : Hemangioma is a relatively common benign proliferation of vascular tissue that primarily develops during childhood and is characterized by a rapid endothelial cell proliferation, followed by gradual involution. Hemangiomas are common benign vascular tumors of the head and neck region which account for 7% of all benign tumors of infancy and childhood. Capillary Haemangioma is a benign vascular tumour characterized by proliferation of blood vessels that are primarily reported to be a developmental hamartomatous lesion of infancy and childhood. Incidence of intraoral capillary hemangioma in adults is infrequent, and its occurrence on the labial mucosa is extremely rare. This case report is an atypical presentation of capillary haemangioma on labial mucosa in 40 years old male.
