Oral Venous Malformation in an 18-Month-Old Child.

Venous malformations (VMs) are part of the spectrum of vascular malformations composed of ectatic venous channels. VMs of the oral cavity in pediatric patients are relatively rare but reportedly carry a higher rate of rupture than in adults. We describe the management of an 18-month-old boy with VM who presented with a localized dome-shaped swelling measuring approximately 9.4 mm by 7.4 mm in the anterior third of the palate. Management with sclerotherapy using an intralesional injection of three percent sodium tetradecyl sulphate was used to treat the lesion with minimum armamentarium, cost, and complication.
