Abstract

A case is reported of a 14‐year‐old girl who had a large cavernous haemangioma and haemangioma simplex of the lower lip. Although a few reports of such a haemangioma and the operation for it can be found in the literature, the blood loss problem and the final cosmesis leave much to be desired. We excised the tumour in two stages using the CO~2~ laser, retaining full function and obtaining good configuration of the affected part. The suitability of the CO~2~ laser for this procedure, because of its haemostatic effect, was noted. The importance of both the physiological and psyhcological problems of such a patient were treated by applying our total treatment concept.
