Abstract:
Intravascular fasciitis (IVF), a rare distinct variant of nodular fasciitis, possesses the same clinical and histologcal features of nodular fasciitis, but in addition, involves predominantly small to medium- sized veins and/or arteries intraluminally, intramurally and extramurally. Only 3 cases of intraoral IVF have been reported in the English literature. Herein we report a case of IVF developing on the inner lower lip and it was successfully treated with simple excision.
