Laser Assisted Excision of Intra-oral Capillary Hemangioma: A Case Report

AbstractHemangiomas are benign vascular neoplasms originating from blood vessels. They present as elevated or flat reddish blue lesions and are usually solitary, predominantly affecting younger women. The growth may progress slowly, involving both superficial and deep vascular structures, and may impair function depending on its location. While most commonly seen in the head and neck region, oral involvement is rare. This case report aims to assess the efficacy of laser therapy in managing capillary hemangioma. The Nd: YAG laser offers superior hemostasis, precise tissue removal, minimal postoperative pain, faster healing, and improved patient compliance, making it a favourable alternative to conventional surgical techniques.
