Oral superficial haemosiderotic lymphovascular malformation: a rare presentation

We present an extremely rare case of a 53-year-old woman with an intraoral superficial haemosiderotic lymphovascular malformation (SHLM), also known as hobnail haemangioma. SHLM is a rare, benign, vascular tumour first described as targetoid haemosiderotic haemangioma, with only a handful of cases reported to present in the oral cavity. The diagnosis was established following complete surgical excision of the lesion, and after 14 months, there are still no signs of recurrence. Although SHLM is an uncommon condition, accurate and timely diagnosis is valuable in distinguishing these lesions from their more serious competing differential diagnoses.
