Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Introduction: Vascular malformations (VM) are characterized by blood vessels that are formed abnormally. Due to its low complication rate and fast recuperation time, laser therapy has recently supplanted open surgery as the treatment of choice for vascular malformations. We report four cases of oral vascular malformations treated by means of diode laser with two methods of coagulation and surgery. Observations: Four patients clinically diagnosed as oral vascular malformations. underwent treatment by means of diode laser. Three patient were treated by photocoagulation method and one patient received surgical excision. Except for one patient who reported pain and discomfort, the remaining cases reported no postoperative complications. Conclusion: Small oral vascular malformations were successfully treated with 810 nm and 940 nm diode lasers via photoablation and photocoagulation. Keywords: Vascular Malformations; Mouth Mucosa; Lasers, Case Reports.
