Vascular anomalies are divided in two groups of vascular tumors and vascular malformation. Hemangioma and lymphangioma are both examples of vascular tumors. Hemangiomas are known as proliferative vascular lesions. They present at birth and are characterized with increased cellular turn over. On the other hand lymphangiomas are hamartomatous tumors of lymphatic vessels. In contrast to these vascular tumors, vascular malformations could be considered as structural anomalies of blood vessels of different origin such as vein, capillaries, lymphatic vessels or combinations.In this article, we presented a case of 23 year-old male with a chief complaint of swelling of the buccal mucosa, which caused some asymmetry in the lower lip. Clinical and histopathological findings clear out this lesion as a combination form of vascular malformations.
