[Treatment of lip angiomas]

The experience with the treatment of 25 patients with angiomas of the lips is presented. Among the several methods of treatment indicated in the literature, the authors have experimented with surgery, surgery and embolization, and systemic corticotherapy. Local application of corticosteroids and sclerosing agents were used just as a complementary therapy to the surgery. Surgery performed in one or more stages when necessary, were considered a safe and reliable method for treatment of mature venous angiomas, as well as for immature ones with no involution after a period of five years.
