Q

treatment for lymphangioma depends on what?

A

size of lesion

23
Q

treatment for lymphangioma

A

surgical excision

24
Q

why is it more difficult to treat hemangioma than lymphangioma?

31
Q

T/F: leiomyoma is common in the oral cavity

A

false, rare

32
Q

T/F: most leiomyoma that occur in the oral region probably arise from vascular smooth muscle (vascular leiomyoma)

A

true

33
Q

clinical features of leiomyoma

  2. rubbery firm
  3. <1 cm diameter
  4. slow growing
  5. usually painless
34
Q

what color are leiomyoma lesions?

A

reddish-purple color due to vascular nature

Q

treatment for leiomyoma

A

conservative excision

40
Q

prognosis of leiomyoma

A

excellent

41
Q
